[Hero CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
congrats your port made mention in XDA tv's weekly roundup

watch it it's hillarious
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dastin1015:
Very amusing. Haha :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Joshhayes801:
Man this looks beautiful. I can't wait.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] contactwajeeh:
Any updates....

Any developments on this... please let me know....
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Bierce22:
this was done just to proove its possible and google has not anounced the source for honycomb yet so nothing much more can be done until they do.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] contactwajeeh:
Thanks for the update beirce.....
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dastin1015:
Source code for Honeycomb will most likely be released approximately the same time as the Ice Cream Sandwich source code does.

Sent from my Hero that never dies! ;D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
Nope it will never be released as the telephony stack is broken so phone calls will not work natively they basically are merging honeycomb and gingerbread into ice cream sandwich but honeycomb will never exist on its own
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dastin1015:
Seriously? Well there goes my dream of pure Honeycomb goodness on the Hero. Hopefully we can eventually get the latest and greatest.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Bierce22:
theyll release the source for ice cream sandwich witch will be pretty much the same thing accept its optimized for phones not tablets.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] scataldo721:
will we ever see ice cream sandwich on our heros?

or

should i go get in line for the evo 3D?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Bierce22:
more than likely we will once cyanogen gets ahold of it. can i say cm8.. lol
[Hero CDMA Android Development] unCoRrUpTeD:
Jump in line for the Evo 3D. I love my Hero, but no matter what I put on it it will never run like the newer phones. I'm waiting on it to drop and see what everyone thinks about it before deciding which phone to get. For those that were around when the Evo 4G came out, there were a lot of people that jumper from the Hero over to the Evo 4G, and from what I am seeing, there will be a lot more going from the Hero to the Evo 3D.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jadenj5:
I'd wait awhile, I herd HTC made it unrootable. Then something that they unlocked boot loaders, so that confused me, but I'm waiting for the ns4g :D!! Still another year with the handy hero but its worth the wait imo
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
there might be a nexus M by that point (except i think motorola blew their chances with that balls awful xoom)

maybe a nexus 2? maybe a nexus O (the O stands for optimus)

or an evo3d4gshift or an optimus Prime (like a legit transformer that turns into a phone)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] unCoRrUpTeD:
There will always be a better phone coming out. My upgrade wasn't until November, but I got them to change it to June, so I'll be upgrading to something ( E3D most likely).

ON TOPIC: I was impressed to see this actually boot up on my phone. and for some strange reason my dad will not root his galaxy s phone, so he is still running 2.2 and I showed him my mild salsa 2.3 rom and then flashed a cm6 with 2.2 and said that HTC stopped us on 2.1 saying that the phone couldn't handle it. Goes to show what the developers here can do.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dastin1015:
I don't get my upgrade till August so I'll wait to see what comes out then, but eyes on E3D.

I was SURPRISED that this actually booted up as well, I didn't have much faith in myself. :P I made the port for the fun of it cause all the higher end phones had it and our phone needed some spotlight attention, hopefully (which it eventually did. ;D) Never did I think I would have people thanking me or being called a developer (which I don't think I am), especially making it to front page. I didn't even know till Il Duce and one of my friends from school told me after I got out of my AP Physics test. Boy was that a shocker.

Sent from my Hero that never dies! ;D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Twolazyg:
lol I'm dumb.. Dead thread.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Nilxchaos:
Apparently the Honeycomb source was released today.

Android 3.2 SDK now available, new features get detailed - Engadget
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
Kernel source not the actual honeycomb source, but yes new sdk
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Nilxchaos:
Oh, darn. Oh well, not like we have much use for it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dastin1015:
Well if I can find the time, I could take the SDK image and get it working for our Hero.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] komusic:
Sound great !!!!!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] megaghostgamer:
I'm one of the HTC Evo Shift developers and I was wondering if you could re-upload the link? I didn't catch this fast enough ;) I still have my hero and I love it and I will agree with lots of people saying "long live the hero" :) Hope you have a great day! :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dastin1015:
If I still have it I'll reupload it when I get the time

私のEVO 3Dから送信される。
[Hero CDMA Android Development] megaghostgamer:
Alright thank you :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] whoshotjr2006:
i second this, if you still have the file id love to have it too, i have a spare heroc that is itching for honeycomb
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dastin1015:
I no longer own the file. :(

I'll need to comb through old SD cards to see if I may have it there.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] whoshotjr2006:
k, thanks for looking. if you cant find it, i see the link for the desire build still works, i might have to port it

thanks for all your work dastin, its sad to see you gone to 3d land but ill be there someday hopefully
[Hero CDMA Android Development] megaghostgamer:
Thanks for looking though! :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] alex_camacho:
I hope i don't catch hell for reviving a "dead" thread. Now I was messing around with my g1 and i found a Honeycomb rom, and it reminded me of this thread. So i started looking through my external HDD, and i found this rom.

Now my question is anyone still interested in this.

If so, I will try to upload it on two, and only two conditions. 1) Expresses consent from Dastin1015, because it's not my rom or my work. 2) If i do get permission i need someone to tell me how to upload it because i have no idea how.

On a sad note i don't know if the rom works. I know it installed and ran last year when i got it, but i haven't been able to get it to boot recently even with the kernel in the OP.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] whoshotjr2006:
I am interested if you can upload it. I'll help you get it up on media fire if dastin says its cool.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] megaghostgamer:
Yes please do so! :) I wish someone could port it to my nook tablet lol. In return I could port a Rom of your like :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] alex_camacho:
Good stuff peoples. Now all we have to do is wait and see if Dastin1015 gets back to us, and gives the go ahead.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ajrty33:
He said he doesn't have it anymore.... and one reason is probably because honeycomb was incredibly broken... yall do know that, right?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] faZevoLv:
it looks quite nice though and would be a nice change for the hero, could we use libs from ics to fix the broken stuff?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] alex_camacho:
Yes, i know he doesn't have it anymore, but i do that's why I'm waiting for his permission to re-release. Yes I know it was all jacked up, but that's what the community is for. I have actually run this in the past on my hero, and i have run another port on my G1. Honestly it runs pretty smooth. There is just a lot of work to be done on it for whoever has the time, the know how, and is up to it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] megaghostgamer:
Yes it was stated lol. I want to dev honeycomb but have no idea how to.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] whoshotjr2006:
We have eclair, froyo, gb, ics and jb so we may as well have honeycomb too lol
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ajrty33:
Meaning dead links get reposted all the time... especially around here.

https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!topic/android-building/tzLYzYJpXOE

we don't have all the source.... and google said it's all jacked up... not just our port. honeycomb was just an incomplete version of ics made for tablets.

find someone with the time, know how, that's up to it and you got yourself some working honeycomb!

no offense to you or anyone. there's just 1 person left here that knows what he's doing and i'm guessing honeycomb isn't on the priority list. it'll take a lot of work.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] whoshotjr2006:
Ajrty don't be such a downer lol. Most of us have moved to different phones and are just looking to have fun flashing now that the heroc isn't our daily device anymore.

Anywhos, this is still a development thread, no matter how old it is so let's move our opinions and such into a thread in general discussion.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] megaghostgamer:
Agreed and we don't have just 1 good dev around here. We've got many. I just need some time to look into it. It should be really easy to port honeycomb using a Ics Rom as a base. There is a guide online on how to edit ram disk to get it working. ;)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] alex_camacho:
Ok, it seems there are more people on board for this than I thought. That's great! now all we have to do is wait and see if Dastin is ok with a re-release; unfortunately I'm not sure if Dastin hangs around here much anymore. I really would like to just drop it for everyone, but i really wouldn't feel comfortable with out his permission. My goal is to keep the devs happy and willing to continue working, and one of the fastest ways to stop that is to take other peoples work.

SO HERE'S TO HOPEFULLY HAVING A WORKING HONEYCOMB PORT ON THE GOOD OLD HTC HERO!!!!

Edit: I don't want anyone thinking that I'm just talking smack, so I am actually going to actively seek out Dastin in another thread, and ask permission. I just have to remember what he upgraded to and i should be able to find him.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] whoshotjr2006:
He is on Evo 3d (shooter) if that helps :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] alex_camacho:
Thanks for the info. I went over to the Evo 3D (shooter) forum, and I haven't found him... yet.

Ill keep trying and keep you all posted. You guys can also help me out by looking for him over in the 3D area, and if anybody finds him explain the situation and send him this way.

Thanks again.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] megaghostgamer:
Why not just look in this thread for his name and pm him. I pmed him a few weeks ago :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] alex_camacho:
I just figured out how to use PM, and i sent dastin a PM. Now we wait.

On an somewhat unrelated note I just found my PM box and had two messages from may to which i just replied... Im such a noob. LOL
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dastin1015:
Feel free to upload it. I'll post the link in the OP and I'll mirror it to my new file hosting sites.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] megaghostgamer:
Thanks so much dastin would you mind if I port it to my nook tablet?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dastin1015:
Go for it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] alex_camacho:
Well there you have it folks, permission from the man himself. I will be glad to upload it as soon as somebody tells me how... AND LET THE FLAMING OF MY NOOBNES COMMENCE!! LOL
[Hero CDMA Android Development] megaghostgamer:
Sign up on mediafire.com and upload it then link it to us :)

Also I may need your help on something. If that's OK. Let me know if you need anything :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
I'm just confused as to why you would, they already have an ICS port, and honeycomb will never work right
[Hero CDMA Android Development] megaghostgamer:
No Honeycomb will work right on the tablet its just that they skipped it because ICS was released when the nook tablet was out. I just wanna play with it on my tablet and thanks for agreeing arty your not the only smart one :silly:
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
No, without the source code audio and hardware acceleration will not work, so no it won't work right ever, but its not like I would know or anything
[Hero CDMA Android Development] alex_camacho:
If im not mistaken, when google released the sdk and source for ICS 4.0 they also released all that stuff for HC 3.0 also. I may be wrong they may have just released the SDK, but again I think they released the source of both at the same time.

I think that maybe because Google released both at the same time, and everyone was so stoked about ICS; the HC release flew right under the radar. Another reason i believe the HC release didnt attract so many people is because it was stated by Google to be a "tablet only Android OS"
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
They did release the source with ICS but they didn't put any flags in it, so essentially you can't compile it on its own, also it was a tablet OS because they broke the phone functionality in it, also pretty much every feature from it ended up in ICS
[Hero CDMA Android Development] alex_camacho:
Interesting. so is there any way to put flags in it (to totally honest I don't know what that even means, but im going to look it up now. and correct the broken phone issue.

And as to why go through all of this, the better question is WHY NOT? It's just better to try and see what comes of it.

I personally would love to see at least a working beta or RC of Honeycomb on my Hero with data and phone. Could you imagine the look on google employees faces when they start seeing HC based phone roms popping up all of a sudden; it would be awesome.

Edit:eek:k so i got the basics of the flags thing
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ajrty33:
you can go through and put flags anywhere you like, but it's not gonna just spit out honeycomb.

people already tried honeycomb and already moved on.... that's why "why?" is the better question.

...they're not gonna be seeing honeycomb phone roms popping up all of a sudden.... it's broken.

https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!topic/android-building/tzLYzYJpXOE
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
I mean more power to you man, but it really seems like a waste of time, this would be like somebody fixing Windows VISTA, its over and done with and its probably best if we just don't talk about it anymore. It was broken from the start but was put out with enough stability to push the platform forward, but its not worth anyone's time to try to fix
[Hero CDMA Android Development] faZevoLv:
I think this could be a good idea, but only for people that done use their phone as a "phone".

I think we should focus on CM10 because nightlys are being uploaded with the latest fixes by Cyanogen, by Shelnutt2.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] alex_camacho:
True CM10 nightlys are rolling out, unfortunately the hero has been dropped. The support was stated to stop at 7.2. The team said that if in the future they find a workaround the "CT... something or other, the compatibility thingy" then they may resume support for the Hero and some other older devices.

For now officially the Hero will be sitting pretty at CM 7.2.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
It's because of how ram heavy the system is and the lack of a gpu on the hero, also there isn't any official cm maintainer currently
[Hero CDMA Android Development] faZevoLv:
Heroc nightlys by shelnutt2 are here http://jellybean.dccontests.com/nightly/ if you didnt know;)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] megaghostgamer:
Get on Teamlegacy.tk please and isnt there something that turns on the acceleration?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] faZevoLv:
No our adreno 130 gpu doesn't support hardware acceleration, we basically don't have a gpu as all gpu related stuff is handled by the cpu.

And I'll be on tomorrow, too tired now, turned my laptop off and I'm on my phone:)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] waeponx:
Doesnt support Hardware Acceleration past GB*

There I fixed your statement. Its not that its not possible, its just not possible as of yet. Until Qualcomm decides to open-source the adreno 130 libs we aren't getting hardware acceleration past GB. SOOOO If you want this to happen I would recommend doing what I tell alot of people that ask "why cant we get hardware accel working?"

Email Qualcomm, and very nicely request they release of the adreno 130 lib sources so that developers can continue to bring happy faces to old devices.. Until then, we will never have hardware acceleration on CM9 or CM10.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] faZevoLv:
Actually hardware acceleration wasn't possible until ICS which our GPU doesn't support as I said in my previous post, soooooo ye:)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
Untrue hardware accl was always used in android, it wasn't till ics that they used it for more stuff, and they rewrote the HAL for it that's what caused the issue
[Hero CDMA Android Development] faZevoLv:
True, but for a hardware accelerated UI, we need HC/ICS or above, but our gpu is emulated by the CPU so won't make much difference with new drivers.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] lhommedangereux:
hi, first let me say any help is appreciated...

i bought an archos 7c tablet which has literally zero support on the company website (it just came out in april) i was using it only for a few hours after i bought it and installed adw ex home app. after restarting it just keeps saying adw ex force close. on every other android device i've had there has been a way to get into recovery but apparently not this thing. the power button is a slider and theres a reset pin button, no other hardware button and no known way to boot up to recovery to data wipe. it looks like my only option might be to just wait for a firmware update from archos...

before the issues started i did manage to set up my gmail and i am still getting emails to it (showing up in the notification bar) and i can open them, i never got around to install tattachapkinstaller tho so i can't install apk's through it.

so...

my idea to get around it i had a bit ago was maybe if i could send myself a link to my settings.apk... i could open up my settings through the shortcut i could send myself in my gmail, then i could go into privacy and do a factory data reset... if this is possible... or if someone has a better idea please let me know.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] lhommedangereux:
So I fixed it myself... sent myself a link to http://mail.Google.com which opened up my browser and allowed me to open my tablets browser without use of a home launcher. I sent myself the u installer apk which I then installed through my browser. This could be a solution for others but it really is depending on a couple things, number one u would probably need to have third party app installs enabled, even tho I think if u troy to install an apk it will shoot u over to where u can turn third party installs on if u don't have it enabled already. Secondly u need to have an email address set up to send urself an html link in order to open your internet browser which u can use to download any app which may help u fix ur problem. I simply got the uninstaller apk and uninstalled adw ex. Good as new.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NIK516:
Hey guys and girls, just thought i might let you know about this oddity/glitch id noticed this morning.

So my alarm went of this morning and i picked it up and it flipped to landscape mode, i turn the alarm off by swiping and then my lock screen key pin screen comes up. So i go to put in my pin and notice that all the numbers are not there the 6 was missing and some others, so i couldnt enter my pin to unlock the screen lol.... not good when you have just woken up lol i swear i counted the numbers 6 times , then i just restarted the phone and it went back to normal.

Anyone else notice this or want to try to recreate the issue? and can i turn the rotate screen off on my pin lock screen settings? are there any settings?

And i know it could be fixed if my Phone was rooted but im not going to root atm.

Thanks in advance again :)
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doncaruana:
After using MN 4.5.6, you can reinstall the Amazon Appstore, but you'll have to redownload your apps. Most of them should work fine and they are tied to your account. But the Angry Birds games are a royal pain. I like them being "part of" the store so they get updates and such (maybe I'm dumb, but seems this is the only way to get updates on these). So, here is how to get them installed (Seasons and Rio, ad-free were free at one point, and I want those back).

First, you gotta have the SD card in or they won't download. So put the SD card and install one of the Angry Birds games.

Then when it pops up, choose 'Package Installer' (I think 'App Installer' is the B&N version and I don't want to mess with that for now).

You'll get the standard install screen, but after attempting to install, you'll get 'Application not installed' and the Done button. Go ahead and touch Done.

Now connect using ADB and go to the shell and go to /sdcard/Android/data/com.amazon.venezia/cache and look for the latest file there. That will be your Angry birds download. It will look something like 'vnz31051.apk'.

Now that you know the file, exit the shell and do a pull:

adb pull /sdcard/Android/data/com.amazon.venezia/cache/vnz31051.apk.

Once you've got the file, take out your sdcard (or you will get an "[INSTALL_FAILED_CONTAINER_ERROR]").

Now, install it via adb:

adb install vnz31051.apk

You should get a success and you can put your SD card back in.

If you go back to the Amazon Appstore and go to 'My Apps' and then 'All', you'll see your Angry Birds games listed as installed now.

Now, you won't get your progress/data here - it's gone unless you did a Titanium Backup. What I don't know (anyone care to chime in?) is if you did one and you restore it, will it still show up in the Amazon Appstore? I have one, but decided to start clean anyway (although you can use that and restore only the data, which I did do).

Figured I hadn't really seen a step-by-step on this and someone might be pulling their hair out...
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doncaruana:
Just a little update to this...

After using this, the Angry Birds Rio update from the Amazon Appstore installed perfect. Showed up with an update available, downloaded and installed, no fiddling with the sd card or anything.

Not sure if anyone else ever needed/used this, but figured I'd share just in case...
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rfryar:
For those that do not like to fiddle with ADB, you can easily use Root explorer to copy the APK to the device from the SDCard and execute the APK and it will install fine that way as well.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Matt K:
Where on the device should I copy it to?
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tvoverbeek:
No need to fiddle with either adb or Root Explorer.

Download with the SD card inserted as written in the OP.

Before hitting the install button after starting Package Manager pop out the SD card,

then tap install and it will install.

Pop the SD card back in after the install finishes.

Note that this is fixed in an alternative kernel. See http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1084758
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Matt K:
Thanks. but that did not work. However I did figure it out. I just needed to drop the installers into "My Downloads" and then remove the SD card and then run the installer.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmguillory:
Hey Matt. This seems to be the common fix to this issue. The problem I am having is moving the apk file from the SD card to the internal memory, then accessing it to install. I am using AndroXplorer, which only seems to give me access to the SD card and not internal memory. My question is, how did you move the apk to internal memory, and how did you access the internal memory to run the apk file? Thanks!
