I think toward the end of your post you got a hint of what I feel. I would gladly spend a week dedicating every second to helping someone to learn to do something and rushing me to teach them more so they could try it themselves. It's being rushed to do something by those who don't care how or what was done and just want to go off with an end product and only return to ask for more. We take the time to explain it, so it almost hurts when I hear things like "Scratch this project, source is out. Go get it" And despite the local culture, donations are not paid excuses for it.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] jeffakajeff:
Is ics source released? ;)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] twistedumbrella:
...yes. Wandered in a little late for the party, though... lol
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] :
Yeah, I see what you are saying. It's like the fun of open source isn't in getting free stuff, it's in being free to participate yourself.

I myself don't know too much about code, but when I've done some beta testing/new rom testing, I usually try to fix bugs myself and report the fix for the bug rather than just be like "dev, fix my bug or I ditch your rom."

You forgot the "I am not responisble for bricked devices...etc..." disclaimer that usually accompanies a new rom. You might want it in this case...

Whatt??? The source code was released almost several hours ago and you guys don't have a full polished release yet?? SLACKERS! Just kidding. Take your time, can't wait to have a release from you devs. You guys are teh bestezt!!!

pretty cool, once i figured out how to move the "finger" around I could play around a bit. But I see where the drivers for the soft keys are very necessary as there is no "back" until those are installed.

Mhm, wish I could help with anything.. But I don't know shieeet about all this :(
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] slovoflud:
I'm no dev, but I was under the impression that the source released couple of days ago was all the devs needed to port it to our phones.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to act like anybody owes me something, I just want to clear thing up for myself.

Because there was some buzz here when devs had the dump from Galaxy Nexus, and now there is absolutely no talk about it.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] nickeedoo:
Same. I've been checking these forums religiously, hoping to see "[ROM] BLOATLESS ICS" or something. If someone who knows could even just tell me what we're waiting for (if anything), it'd be appreciated. I like to get involved as much as I can since I know jack squat about developing a rom. :P That said, I'm not asking you to rush, take your time! I'm just in the dark.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] coredalae:
thing is that in ICS the drivers for GPU etc are different or something.

or atleast what i get from it is that the drivers are missing currently and the 3.0 kernel isn't stable yet.

the only sourcecode build rom i saw was Koush showing off ics on a nexus S with the old kernel 2.35

however CM team is working on it and we'll see it for sure, just dont ask for ETA's :P (follow koush etc on twitter if you want to keep up to date)

Galnet has MIUI whit ICS frameworks, runs fine for me, and i think that means it has power and memory management from ICS, atleast.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] aceman118:
Does that have any of the features? Like the new folders, spell check, cell data management, etc?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Whippler:
No it doesnt :/, but

well MIUI has its own folder system witch is fine, and it has its own data monitoring app, where you can set data limit, and warning limit, also track amount of sms messages, and incoming and outgoing minutes, lacks graphical display tough. and it shows how much different apps have used data, and you can block apps from using data/wlan

this is no quick thing... source code is Gigabytes of code. The largest rom TEAM cyanogenmod siad they might have something in two months if that tells you how hard this is...

ive already started porting it ;)

edit: **** man, it never boots. it gets loads of errors, and i managed to fix most of them. this one though, i cant fix. any suggestions? if there arent any suggestions, ill try again afterschool tomorrow haha
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tarends:
You could try to replace the surfaceflingering lib with the one that comes with the egl module you used for the port. Let me know how that worked out. And check your kernel log if it is missing any files. It will report something like cannot find "lib_blabla.so" disable "blabla".

And compare it to a rom with same kernel base to see if files are needed or not. Good luck.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] siulmagic:
i did a very quick dirty port, of the ics rom on the hd2, and we still have a very **** up touchscreen. we need a kernel fix for that. and last i hear the fix we use is still the same, witch hardly works.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xT4Z1N4TRx:
Can you upload it please? Theres a few files on there that will help me 8)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] siulmagic:
i could upload, but its the exact same problems/issues as sdk, only difference is i guess, is that we probably ger ril now and wifi probably, i dint test those but they should be working.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sino8r:
That's exactly what I've witnessed comparing the sdk and source builds. Seems like a lot of changes are making things difficult but I have confidence in y'all work!:D I'm sure you'll be able to put together something somewhat usable. Just enough to give us end users something to play with until CM releases or leaks an alpha or beta. I wish I could help a bit more but my experience in kernel work is minimal at best. I doubt I could be of much help because of that.

Good luck to everyone on the ICS endeavors!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] hackbob:
There is a Desire ICS beta build here

The source is AOSP, not "for the galaxy nexus". The support for SD is there, the Nexus doesn't have it in place because it's not partitioned like SD space.

I guess it will not really be functional as a rom. We have to wait for Google to release the source code for Ice Cream Sandwich before we can take full use of it. The interface will probably work but not very functional overall as far as I understand.

great job man. once you release it, i'm sure you'll get plenty of quick fixes from the other loyal g2ers.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] noneabove:
when you release it (after you get the TS working which im hoping for today :D well at least i know youre working on it, that's all that matters for now :)) it will be a rooted rom right ? thats the main thing we probably all need actually is a rooted rom that can be flashed with CWM and itll be perfect!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Deadly Sto(R)m:
How long does it take to port icecream sandwich to desire z? A day? A week? A month?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] martonikaj:
Keep in mind that there is a difference between an SDK port (this) and a port from source (real ROMs).

A port from the SDK won't take long, but won't really be a functional ROM. Its far from useful as a daily driver.

A port when source drops won't take too long either, but of course we have to wait for source first. And since the Nexus isn't dropping till "November" we have a few weeks to go.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] farsanx:
This can be the best port made ever!!! Waiting for it... Thanks man!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] gtmaster303:
BRING IT ON!

It will be interesting to see which phones officially and unofficially get the ICS update...

Overall didn't see anything out of the ordinary. Android is still on top. Nice improvements, but nothing revolutionary, I hate to say it...

It will be nice to see everything on one unified OS though...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ohcanada:
maybe you guys didn't notice, the nexus s forum doesn't have a port yet! Maybe they do but they didn't post it. Thank you Siul you are awesome.

p.s: there is a new feature called wifi direct which didn't mention in the presentation, it is basically enabling your wifi connection when transfering files between ics devices, that's cool!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] martonikaj:
WiFi Direct is a wifi standard that lets your wifi devices transfer files between each other without an access point in the middle. Its already implemented in many devices, some of which are running Android.

I'm curious how is this different from ad-hoc mode? It sounds like it does the exact same thing.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tramane:
DOPE!!!

I need an Evo again.

It will be forever b4 the epic gets this port
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] martonikaj:
Ad-hoc is one device sharing the WiFi signal to another device. WiFi direct is a link between the 2, not one sharing off of the other.

A little light reading on Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WiFi_Direct

"When a device enters the range of the Wi-Fi Direct host, it can connect to it using the existing ad-hoc protocol, and then gather setup information using a Protected Setup-style transfer. Connection and setup is so simplified that some suggest it may replace Bluetooth in some situations."

So it uses similar protocols, but each computer makes itself a software AP (access point) and connects to the other one, sets up, and exchanges data automatically.
