[Acer Iconia A500] thiazzi:
But you're just speculating.
[Acer Iconia A500] athakur999:
Google has already stated that ICS will be AOSP'ed, so worst case scenario we'll at least be able to get native 3rd party ROMs for our A500's as long as the developer community remains strong.
[Acer Iconia A500] Lorthirk:
Am I the only one smelling a troll around here?

However, the 18 months update policy is for the Android Alliance Partners only, which unfortunately doesn't include Acer AFAIK.
[Acer Iconia A500] FloatingFatMan:
Oh yes they are...

[Acer Iconia A500] athakur999:
You had to be part of the Open Handset Alliance to get the source code for Honeycomb. Google wanted more control on this particular release to keep vendors from trying to use it on a regular phone.
[Acer Iconia A500] foxmotoracer23:
From the "leaked" photos I'm not really impressed with the ice cream sandwich update. It might be nice on phones but I love honeycomb on tablets. Yes there could be some improvement but overall honeycomb is great.
[Acer Iconia A500] BrianDigital:
ACER could get alot of good geek buzz, if they update to ICS and open the bootloader up.
[Acer Iconia A500] cordell507:
with ics i hope they have a tablet ui and a phone ui seperate
[Acer Iconia A500] gmfeny:
Ruh roh am I the troll?
[Acer Iconia A500] cfrock:
I think you will be disappointed. ICS is supposed to re-unite the phone and tabs os into one.
[Acer Iconia A500] Lorthirk:
Open Handset Alliance == Android Alliance?

Not sure of that, but I may be well wrong...
[Acer Iconia A500] cybermage1:
Ah, but an update to an OS and a NEW OS version are two entirely different things. Updates are point releases and bug fixes. You confuse the two, methinks. I deal with a lot of business contracts and I think I can speak with a bit of confidence that there's no way Google would force vendors to do major updates. Besides, if they did that you would now have Honeycomb on some phones... Obviously they can't because you can't even guarantee the same hardware will run the next major release.

Again I disagree - sure there might be some irritated people on these forums, but the average consumer is now buying this tablet from Wal Mart of all places. That means they ain't all geeks anymore and probably won't even know when ICS is released.

The real trick is to buy like the manufacturers intended. Buy a tablet that does what you want RIGHT NOW. If you can't do that, don't buy because there's absolutely no guarantee that it will do what you want later.

It's like buying a Ford hoping for a free update to Jaguar before your warranty expires. Okay so it's nothing like that. But it is.

But isn't that the point? :D
[Acer Iconia A500] muqali:
That doesn't mean the interface will be identical for all screen sizes and resolutions. Even if it defaults to some hybrid it may be possible to change it via a setting, or behind the scenes like the Gingerbread UI thing for Honeycomb.
[Acer Iconia A500] muqali:
It's not so much how it looks that I'm interested in. I feel there is a huge amount of work to be done under the hood. Native support for many more filesystems, better hardware acceleration across the board, far more USB devices, the list goes on and on. Then you've got numerous API changes and improvements for app makers to take advantage of.

I'm really hoping this upcoming release will make Android replace my need for a Windows desktop PC for anything other than gaming, or maybe dealing with those assholes who still refuse to use open office(not OpenOffice)document formats.
[Acer Iconia A500] BatPenguin:
Is this based on some actual leak of what ICS will bring or just a personal wish list? I agree with your wishes, for me, the tab has pretty much replaced a computer/laptop in my free time. Work is of course different, but for personal use, I think I've only used my laptop for ripping DVDs since I got the A500. Kinda silly actually, I have a desktop/HTPC, laptop and a netbook and I rarely touch them now :)

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] edcassin:
I was wondering if it would be possible to.develop.an android

App that exploits a phones transmit and reciever to make carrierless calls direct

From mobile to mobile.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] edcassin:
Sorry if I wasn't clear on the last post.

Let me elaborate, now that I'm sitting at real keyboard.....

I don't know enough about how the hardware in modern smartphones work,

but it seems to me that all phones have the capability of transmitting and receiving signals.

Has anyone thought of developing something that can make use of this without using a carrier in between?

An app that can transmit and receive directly to another mobile that is in radio range.

There are many apps that support various forms of communication without carriers, but they depend on bluetooth or wifi.

I am talking aout an app that uses the phones GSM/GPRS/ETC radio - the one that has enough power to reach a cell tower - only it's designed to be picked up directly by the other phone (provided it's in range).

I guess what I'm trying to find out is if an app can be developed to turn my fancy smartphone into a "walkie talkie" or "2 way radio".

The advantage is free calls when in radio range.Hope this makes sense and someone can point me in the right direction.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thinkncode:
You mentioned push to talk which there are apps for that just go to the market and type in push to talk. Although I believe they require a carrier access. Although there's Google voice that if your within range of WiFi. There's free apps called text for free. If you go to related apps there might be something there. I'm not a hundred present sure if its possible. But hopefully with my suggestions it might help you find what you need
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thinkncode:
I just found the app that I think you are looking its called cb radio chat. It's a new app if you have problems the developer has his email on the description so s/he must have no problems finding a solution to what ever problem you might have.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Starfox:
This kernel is based upon the current git tree for 2.6.27 with minor tweaks included, such as ext4. This is suitable for all devices and should work as well as the autobuild. Please note this isn't an autobuild, so there might be a slight delay between a commit and an update to this thread. Also I do not intend to deviate much from the autobuild other than the changes mentioned below, so if you really need a feature, please include a compelling reason why it should be done.

You will need a new haret.exe as well as an additional line in startup.txt to boot this kernel. Instructions for that can be found at http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=14519408&postcount=1.

Commit 1348 (8/20): http://db.tt/UnLHCuR

Older version: Commit 1346 (8/16): http://db.tt/RhUlSDd

Changes:

Support for ext4 (You must use a rootfs dated 8/16 or later, and have the option

ext4dev

in your startup.txt cmdline)

Deadline I/O scheduler as default

Sleepmode 1 set by default (No longer needs

pm.sleepmode=1

in your startup.txt cmdline)

Ondemand CPU governor minfreq lowered to 112MHz

Powersave and Conservative CPU governor added

Netfilter Redirect added as module

RNDIS set as default for tethering

Swap notifier patch for compcache included and enabled

Most of these changes are in .config, and can be verified by looking at /proc/config.gz in your running kernel. The swap notifier patch allows compcache to skip certain operations, which should improve performance if you do use ramzswap. Ext4 is still considered experimental in the .27 tree, but has been updated with Ted T'so's backport patches in his ext4 git.

Please again note the following on ext4 support:

1) You must use a rootfs dated 8/16 or later for the proper support

2) You must use my kernel, as it is the only one with the required support compiled.

3) You must have the cmdline option "ext4dev" inside your startup.txt. Otherwise it will still continue on using ext2 data.img.

4) Using ext4 will create a brand new file called data.ext4. This is intentional, as I did not want to have the same file (data.img) with different format to confuse the matter further. This also means that none of your existing app/setting will be preserved. Be sure to back up your data & app with something like Titanium Backup, and have at least 500MB free on your SD card so that the system can create a new store.

Just loaded this one up and found something very odd... my ts-calibration was all off... Booted back into WM and deleted and re-calibrated... Still seeing the same issue...

Not sure why a module would do that but just thought I would let you know...

I went back to your 8/15 and 8/16 test kernel and could not even use the slide lock... This one is really wierd... Going to delete my data.ext4 and see if I can resolve that way...

Thanks for all the hard work you've been putting in to come up with these kernels...

Edit: Just saw the update on this page... Thanks...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Starfox:
Sorry about having to pull the file, I've recompiled the whole thing using gcc-4.4 and the touchscreen seems normal again. For those who may have downloaded the first file, please download it again, even if you don't have issues. The correct filesize for the new version is 2460710 bytes.

For the technical-mined out there, the first attempt was compiled using arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc 4.5.2-8 under Ubuntu 11.04 amd64. Certain versions of compiler may introduce bugs where it might over-optimize certain things, and to complicate things, we are trying to make it run under a different architecture. That can introduce unforseen bugs due to endianess, data size differences, etc. that would otherwise not happen. Cross-compiling is a voodoo art at best, and the kernel source tree expands to ~900MB including all the intermediate files produced during the build process.

If you have a Ubuntu 11.04 machine and would like to help me determine if it was actually a cross-compile bug, send me a PM and I'll try to walk you through setting up the build environment and compiling the kernel. Since the bug popped up with the touchscreen, it will be relatively easy to confirm whether the compiler was responsible.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Starfox:
What exactly is in your startup.txt cmdline, and which rootfs are you using?

-- Starfox
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] bughunt:
Right. So, I went back to the Commit 1346 (8/16) and that went away.

Now I'm getting "ignored duplicate definition of service" and the "request_suspend_state" loops... it might be due to the new Class 10 SD that I'm using for this testing - Going to find an old Class 2 and try again.

FYI - the startup.txt command line is

set cmdline "lcd.density=240 msmvkeyb_toggle=off gsensor_axis=2,1,3 force_cdma=0 msmsdcc_1bit msmsdcc_fmax=14000000 msmsdcc_nopwrsave pm.sleep_mode=1 hw3d.force=1 acpuclock.oc_freq_khz=716800 ext4dev physkeyboard=rhod100_uk-b4HOME"

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] mgross029:
StarFox,

Ran with this kernel through yesterday and into this morning... It all seems stable... However, I did notice longer than normal GPS signal acquisition times. When I was running the 1340 kernel I noticed this too. When I went to your Test 8/16 kernel I was getting a lock much quicker. Going to go back to the 8/16 test kernel to verify this.

Thanks...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Starfox:
Okay, first, you're running a class 10 card with 1-bit and 14Mhz freq. Take these ones out: force_cdma=0 msmsdcc_1bit msmsdcc_fmax=14000000 msmsdcc_nopwrsave hw3d.force=1

You can take this one out if running my kernel:

pm.sleep_mode=1

How old is this startup.txt? These are values that have not been used for a while.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Starfox:
You'll have to explain the panel one to me, but not sure what the 1056MHz option would do for this kernel.

Also, this is xdandroid kernel, not CWM. And data.ext4 is a real ext4 partition. It's only ext4dev because .27 was before ext4 was "official".

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] helicopter88:
Blackra1n,to have a partition in cwm as ext4 you just need to change a few things in rootfs

Panel if run from pll1 gets weird with gpu overclocked,so Blackra1n moved the panel to pll2,from what user reported the panel works well now and there's more speed,if you need more infos,pm me or blackra1n(I'm on #xdandroid in the afternoons)

More infos here
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] Starfox:
Please describe how panel gets "weird", because this is the first time I've heard of it. Rhodium by default runs at 960mhz pll from what I've seen. And there seems to be no way to conclusively test what freq a pll runs at - from a quick glance of the thread mentioned I saw some "tests" of factors other than a simple freq change - ie, I saw mention of JIT being enabled for the "overclocked" one, which does not help.

-- Starfox
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] helicopter88:
I don't have a device since may so i've never had a chance to test it.

But Blackra1n reported somewhere that panel was getting weird,I've not asked for definition of weird,so you'd do better asking him..
