Eventually...yes, someone will. Is anyone currently? Who knows? Most developers keep to themselves until right before they're ready to release.
With Jelly Bean about to be released to our phones soon, some developers may be wanting to wait until then to begin working on a kernel because they don't want to create a kernel for a version that may become outdated very soon.

I've also been curious as to why there hasn't been any kernel development.

I asked this same question in q & a and the response i got was there are no tw kernel devs. So this phone is still gaining more attention so i think we should have some kernel devs soon.

Will actually there is a 1.89ghz called kettle corn but it's a bit outdated

I have noticed this with all my samsung phones. Kernels take a long time to perfect, and the only way to do that is to stick with one build, and just keep tweaking it. The problem is that Sprint and Samsung seem to constantly keep updating, and with every new build comes a new kernel. In order to update the kernel you have to wait for the source to be released, but by the time the source is released there is a new build coming out and everybody wants the new build. So if someone were to compile a kernel for touchwiz, but next week we get a leak for sprint jellybean rom or something, everybody would want that....so why waist the time trying to build a kernel when it will be outdated as soon as its released?

Will JB be 100% working for our phone when the tools are released?

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.
Can a dev jump in and let me know of my logic is correct

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

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.

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...

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).

Samsung Source + Jelly Bean Source = E4GT 4.1 Roms?

Sorry if this is a retarded question, but since Samsung dropped the 4.0 source for our phone, and JB 4.1 source code was released, does this mean that people can start compiling fully functional Jelly Bean roms for the epic 4g touch?
If so, is anyone working on one?
You've got it wrong. The samsung source that was released is ICS kernel source. That doesn't really mean much for jelly bean.
There is work being done to try to port it nonetheless.

I thought that you can run roms on older kernels...for example, CM9 is currently running on a GB kernel. Since 4.0 and 4.1 don't have as big of a coding jump, couldn't you run 4.1 on a 4.0 kernel?

the first couple of ICS ALPHA builds i think was running a hacked together GB kernel, then when the first leaks of ICS drop for our phones thats when the devs started using the pre build kernels that came in the leak ROMs. ICS and JB still uses a 3.0 kernel so from the source that was release devs can make JB ROMs for our phone from it, thats what CM devs have been doing to get preview builds of JB/CM10 on some phones. anyone can correct me if am wrong because am still learning about these stuff lol....but i think thats it.
well team hacksung just released a preview of JB for the international gs2. So that means that they are making progress on it and it must'nt be all that much of a change from cm9 to cm10. as JB has been out for what, almost a month now. and some people are getting cm10 previews, alphas and betas. so it must not be that big of a change in kernels. Of course i could be completely wrong in all of this, just IMO. well probably have cm10 sooner than we all think. our devs are awesome.

+1 Well there is a difference of radios but I also dont understand how minor differences can make it so difficult to port from. You would think with the exception of radios & different key mapping that the architecture of both phones are exact, but then again I'm not a dev so there's probably some factor in there I'm missing.

The screen size is a minor difference. But, cdma and GSM radio is the big issue when it comes to porting anything from the international to us. At least that's the impression I get from the many threads I read.

Ive been wrong before. i was wrong 3 times before lunch. im just speculating. whenever we get it is good for me. its ready when its ready.
Lets not forget half of our AOSP Developers do not even have this phone or acquired/reacquired the phone after the fact and do not have service on the device. Darchstar is no longer with Sprint and bought another E4GT with donations. Chris41G does not have the phone at all apparently.

[ROM] Unofficial Slim Bean Ver. 3.1.0(01-12-13) Final until 4.2 works!

Anyone that has the urge to change, alter and or make better this rom. All I have to say is feel free!! The whole great thing about open source is just that. Make sure to give credit where it is due! The only credit due here is for Slim, I only compiled from there source. If I can help get slim w/android 4.2 working on hercules than I am a hero, but for now I am just sharing source of a great rom.
Compiled on the 28th. Version 2.8.1
I know gmills was having problems with his computer and I have been building for a while now so I figure why not share.
I am not having any problems with this rom at all. Stock kernel, stock build.prop etc.
I would like to have some of ya'll test as is and see if you have any issue's.
For anyone that wants to help test, I would like for a clean install,just like coming from stock phone. Format everything and start from scratch with this build. I am doing another build this evening and will let the testers know when. This build I am posting now is very stable and I will not post anything that Is not stable and pre tested in this thread. If you want to test new builds, just let me know.
I take no credit for this at all, All the members of Slim Bean and of course cyanogen and team chop sticks made this possible!
Also special thanks to team rook! If you are interested in building from source then read this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1798056

Been running this for a couple of days now, haven't had a single problem with it yet. I was a bit surprised when I first booted it up and it didn't have the same LCD density that the official build had but it wasn't a major deal to get that swapped over.
Thanks for helping out and providing this for us. I'd been waiting for the official update but finally decided to ahead and pull the trigger when I noticed this thread.

Yes this is Slim's base. I am going to do a 2.9 build, it appears Slim Bean has been updated. Starting build now and should be done in a couple of hours! My builds are straight from Slim's repo, with no changes. I don't know why mine build is bigger than gmills unless he is changing things in his build.? I sync there repo and build.
I am planning to do some changes but haven't done so yet

There's 3 ROMs that are my go to of choice and slim is one of them. I won't advertise on your thread of the other 2 choices out of respect to the thread and you. So needless to say thanks for this

4.3

Ive been scouting around, and i cant seem to find any news on when a 4.3 rom will be ported to our beloved device. Anyone have any inside news on such a thing?
It's always a race to be first, so I wouldnt be surprised if someone pops out a 4.3 rom by the end of today (but I'm sure more realistically is next week). Just gotta be patient I guess.

Me too, lol. I read this morning that the Cyanogenmod team is running into quite a few build errors, so once they sort through them it prolly wont be very long after that to see the development sections getting flooded with 4.3 roms.

4.3 Status Update #2 - Builds that boot So much excitement this morning! Marching towards getting the code read
Awesome
I tried porting it from the mako, but no go. Too many internal changes for me to use pieces from 4.2.2 successfully

The first official CM10.2 nightly based on 4.3 was built yesterday.

Theres even been some issues getting it to the Gnex side. It's there but lots of hurdles to make it work properly. Seems that Cdma devices are an issue somewhat, that may be why the carriers themselves are having issues. Plus lots of new integrated security measures from Google itself.

4.3 is not worth the trouble to change focus from 4.2.2 to 4.3. 4.2.2. Roms are much more stable and there is no point in having to iron out the problems with 4.3. At least in my opinion.

Why not stay on 4.1.2? Or ICS? If stability is your thing then stick with TW. Two months from now you'll be on 4.3 and glad that the dev community worked hard to put it together while saying the same thing about KLP...

4.2.2 has a number of changes significant enough for me to flash a 4.2 ROM every once and a while. But not 4.3. Stability isn't my thing. The trade off between stability and features is my thing.

Just curious because your comment made no sense to me but the could just be me. 4.1 TW is loaded with features and extremely stable, 4.2 AOSP is kanged together but rather stable. 4.3 kanged together, plenty of bugs and not stable.
Now you saying you would trade features for stability which makes no sense because what good are features if you can't benefit from them because it's unstable. But the roms with the most features are TW roms and the most stable. Just confused about what you said cause you say one thing then go in a different direction.

I never even referred to TouchWiz. I am comparing AOSP ROMS. Particularly 4.2, and 4.3. In that comparison I concluded that 4.3 did NOT have a significant number of changes, and, or added features to put time into making 4.3 more stable, when 4.2 is already significantly more stable. Make sense? Basic logic. Never even brought up ToucWiz people.

i dont know why it didnt show the full question anyways my question was about no new roms coming out for a while, see i am a xda member for years and im allways exited to see new roms out couse i like to try new things and ima rom tester, and i was wondering if the reason devs are not coming out with new things is becouse they are waiting for 4.3 to come out?

by the way i know devs are working with AOSP 4.3 and got nothing but respect but im waiting to see a 4.3 jellybean TW like the original galaxy note 3 or S4 and try new features i hope someone understand or is thinking alike

New versions of ROM's are being released every day, just because there's not a new ROM with a different name being released doesn't mean that the development community is not extremely active for this device. Look at Quantum, that ROM gets updated almost every other day.

That's just the thing. Devs are working on new ROMs. AOSP is it. The only way you will see TW 4.3 is when 1) when and if Samsung releases a 4.3 ROM for the S3 and/or 2) someone can successfully port a TW 4.3 ROM.
