hey...theres still hope. I'm sure you guys have all seen by now on droid life that theres a fully functional stable build for the nexus s. I understand it's another google phone and things probably went easier. but hey...it's still wishful thinking.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] jbarcus81:
There is always hope!! The DINC2 is a great phone .. I just wonder what HTC will do with the interface.. as is ICS is VERY nice looking cosmetically .. How long before source comes out? I wonder if they have a test build flying around somewhere already.. You never know..
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] riverstudd:
wow, stumbling across this made my night. i wish i could helps as far as dev goes though...i just dont have time anymore. but if you need a tester at any point hit me up. Good luck and great job so far.

WHOOPS wrong account lol, 1 post!!! XD
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] HypostaticOnion:
I got all excited cuz I found someone who was gonna port a CM7/ICS ROM for us, but he suddenly backed out and even stopped for the EVO 3D which is his home turf. Apparently a bunch happened and he had to give up dev'ing.

I wonder if Joel gets his dinc port done if he could easily make it work for us????
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] touchpro247:
This is just a dirty port for now.

Download Boot Manager.

Put the zip on your sdcard.

Wipe Everything.

Install.

Use Ext2.

Uploading new base............

The touchscreen is still not working.

I'm just releasing it for those who want to work on it also.

Thanks and have fun!

Yes, I saw that the Nexus S got ICS (lucky!).

I have faith that we will get ICS sooner (via ROM) or later (via Verizon/HTC).

From what I understand, it should technically run on new-this-year phones.

Really wanting to give it a try....certainly looks very nice.... :D

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] [::AP::]:
I should really stop checking this thread twice a day...

It is going to at LEAST a month before anything functional appears.

Which means I need to be patient :)....

Out of curiosity, is anyone else working on this (with "Grouper?") ? If so, what are they doing?

I really wish I could help....but....I can't.

Just know that the community is thankful for the time spent on tinkering, troubleshooting, and cooking up scrumptious ROMs.

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Grouper:
I have been busy with friends in from out of town and a broken down car, sorry for the lack of updates. Unless there is a way to get it flashed and booting without using Boot Manager I won't be working on it. I'm not going to pay for an app to work on an SDK port. I tried flashing it through CWM and it won't boot. I'm downloading the working Samsung port to see what differences there are between what we have and what they have... that might help.

If someone knows how to get it booting let me know.

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ph1nn:
I really don't know what you guys expect to do with a ROM dump for our phones, it's almost comical reading this. We're going to have to wait, like everyone else, for the source to be released. Even then it'll be a few months before things work, drivers are ported, etc. Then there is the kernel... running 2.6.35 may be difficult on ICS we don't know, I doubt it would be a straight port of drivers to 3.x.

I would say March 2012 for a CyanogenMod or other AOSP release at the soonest, if not sometime in Q2. Blame Google for not releasing the source faster, blame phone manufacturers for not porting it. Hell, we don't even know when Google is going to release the source.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] knipp21:
Your post is comical. As the nexus s already has a semi stable build of ics in the making...with the help of a member that also has a inc2..

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Konner920:
They're releasing the source a week or so after they actually release the galaxy nexus.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] illcat2000:
People are working hard on this be negative somewhere else. i saw its running pretty damn smooth on the nexus.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ph1nn:
Sorry I really wasn't trying to be negative, just realistic, there is a TON of work to do before this is going to run with full functionality on the Incredible 2, it's months away, certainly not weeks.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] times_infinity:
I dont think months away. Maybe a month at most. Since we have full working AOSP for this phone already. If we didnt then yeah. It would take months. The only thing that would take a while would be kernel source since we need that from HTC and God knows when they'll update this phone to ICS never mind release kernel sources.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] HypostaticOnion:
Especially since they haven't even released the 2.3.4 kernel source.

Sent from my Droid Incredible 2 HD courtesy of Newt
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ph1nn:
Fair enough but you will see that I'm probably right if you are looking for an Android 4.0 ROM to be full featured to the point AOSP is right now.

Keep in mind it took the awesome CyanogenMod team 3-4 months for a stable Gingerbread release after it came out about a year ago. The same can be expected for ICS, if not more so because of the magnitude of overhaul it brings. It just seems like we are putting the cart before the horse here, let's let Google release the source and go from there.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] tmlhodge:
Sense requires more overhaul than ics.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] sjpritch25:
What about kernal source code for ICS? How much different will it be compared to Gingerbread. Doesn't HTC have to release that? Just wondering what might delay it.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] franklin270h:
It'll be much different. But to be fair, probably won't differ as much as for dual core phones and such.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Grouper:
I'm certainly not the most eloquent but as a general rule of thumb, if you're trying to pass yourself off as knowledgeable and condescending at the same time, don't use that, many extra, commas. It certainly doesn't make you look learned in any way.

Generally "porting" in Android doesn't mean actually modifying any source code or binary files, but just hacking together a working build by trial-and-error. The drivers won't be "ported" by anyone because the source isn't available. HTC would need to update the kernel modules to work with any new APIs in ICS. If the APIs haven't changed or changed that much there is a chance that the kernel modules that we already have will work. There are also plenty of plain-text scripts and configuration files that are clearly editable, where even if you don't know what you're doing you can make an attempt and sometimes get things working.

Now, unless you're an engineer working on Android from Google, HTC, or in general someone who actually knows what they're talking about, I don't understand why you had to even post that.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] HypostaticOnion:
I know this kinda defeats the purpose of what I'm actually saying, but I think when it comes to releases like this, if you don't have any beneficial input such as ideas on how to accomplish this, then shut up! Like, how can the devs work if they're constantly being bombarded with "This is impossible, we don't have source code yet..." It's ridiculous. Just let the people work, and when they get it working you won't look like an idiot for saying it couldn't be done, and putting your foot in your mouth. If you don't say it, then no one will think you're an idiot for saying something absurd. Now, please leave the devs alone!!!

It's not booting from the system.

It only boots if you use boot manager and that doesn't work for everyone.

Nothing has been done to the rom because touch is not working properly.

Unless you plan on working on the rom don't waste your time or money(if your planning on buying boot manager just to try the rom).
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] bradsinram:

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] rm2011:
I got it to boot to system as far as the android boot animation. But it just bootloops. It's being caused by somehing with the audio config.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] PalmerCurling:
did you tweak anything? i flashed zip as is and it stops at HTC splashscreen

EDIT: I bought Boot Manager from the market; Boot manager asks if the Market has been installed on the rom before booting. do we have an ICS gapps zip to flash, or what do we do to bypass that?

EDIT2: ROM is booting from Boot Manager. Winsauce. pointer control is.... interesting. im getting Winbloze style ghosting on it though. awesome to see it at this point. im going to do some poking around and see what shennanigans we can make happen. i dont know if i have much time to do this tonight, but i will do my best.

Navigating and actually using the pointer control is extemely difficult...

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] live2die:
all i can do is to say that you guys are awsome!
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Grouper:
You need USB Debugging turned on in order to use Android Screencast. If you get that far, sometimes you need to restart ADB, then plug in your phone, then start the software. Android Screencast is kinda touchy and will stop working, just restart ADB and that usually fixes it.
