[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] crowstar:
If you want to compile this, it is MUCH easier on 10.04 LTS, simply because the compilers are too new on 11.10, save yourself some trouble with that.

I'm getting the source very soon, and will TRY to get at least a bootable rom. :p
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] yogi2010:
i can say that the AOSP build for the emulator and for Maguro did build fine on my 10.04 setup.

am i correct in thinking we would use drivers from the CM7 kernel to try and build for the G2?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] comat0se:
I got it to compile on RHEL, but only after removing all of the installed openjdk and installing the sun-jdk devel packages. Otherwise I was getting an "Error 41" It took about 6 hours real time using "make -j16" on a quad core i7-860 machine with 4GB ram.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] darkspadez:
Yes best option is 10.04 a couple of us tried on 11.10 but was too much of a hassel. We are able to compile fairly easy does take about 1hr+ on the machine i use.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] darkspadez:
We are going to try to use the driver from the cm7 kernel but might not work. I plan on doing most of the work tomorrow.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] darkspadez:
Ubuntu 10.04 has given us little to no hassel so you might wanna try that.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tsubus:
I'm compiling it for the vision right now...I've already fixed quite a few errors but I'm sure it will still give me some errors before I actually get a bootable build...and then a lot of stuff won't work anyway, but it will be a good first step I guess. I'll keep you posted.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] bled82:
Hey does ICS need 16gb of ram to compile ? I ask because on the source code page it shows "Note: It is also possible to build Android in a virtual machine. If you are running Linux in a virtual machine, you will need at least 16GB of RAM/swap and 30GB or more of disk space in order to build the Android tree." and i also read a couple of post from before the code was releasesd that stated the same , but i wanted to try and build a rom my self but did not want to waste my time if you have to have 16gb since i only have 8gb .
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tsubus:
I don't think it needs it, it will just be slower if you don't have it.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] darkspadez:
You dont need 16gb ram its just that compiling it will go quicker with more ram and a good cpu.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tsubus:
I've compiled it successfully, not it's just a matter of flashing it to the phone and see if it boots.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] MrFrankfromCM:
Do it! Do it! :D
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tsubus:
I'm downloading the img files from my home machine, it'll take a few minutes before I can actually flash ;)

edit: didn't boot, I'm going to recompile from scratch (kept the mods in source files, so it's not going to take as long) but I've saved the image files so that I can take a look at them once I get home.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] selectodude:
I don't want to muck up the thread too much - but is it as easy as throwing in the right blobs and compiling? I'd like to give it a shot too.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] darkspadez:
Tsubus that was long lol. It looks like libs and/or kernel issue.
[HTC Sensation] will.hare:
Hey all.

I rooted my sensation and installed a different Rom without back up lol stupid mistake. Now my gps isn't working at all iv tryed everything but no success.

So if there is any way to go back to original Rom radio and so on for UK o2 network and try gps then if it works I can work around it.
[HTC Sensation] dorianborovina:
Try searching on this forum,i think i saw somewhere list of stock roms for sensation...

Do a little bit of searching...

And remember to do a backups in future

Cheers :)
[HTC Sensation] RD-Sockpuppet:

To go back to stock rom, you need a so called RUU file, which is an .exe file to be run from Windows with phone connected.
[HTC Sensation] will.hare:
Hey I tryed that for some reason it doesn't work.
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
What doesn't work, and which one did you try using?
[HTC Sensation] RD-Sockpuppet:
If you Super CID, you can use any RUU you want.
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
But the you're not back to stock are you? ;)
[HTC Sensation] RD-Sockpuppet:
Why not ? It is still stock, but not the original of course :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] switters1:
Anybody have a sense of how easy it is to pull in the ICS keyboard +dictionaries?

It looks really sweet and it'd be great if we could just run it on gingerbread builds.

I remember when gingerbread dropped, froyo users were able to use the keyboard right away. Maybe this is less straightforward with ICS.

Currently on CM7

Who's interested in it? Same price as the original
[Blade General] LiverpoolsNo9:
The only real upgrade point in my mind is the arm 11 processor. Would make a big difference in capabilities.
[Blade General] olyloh6696:
Seems a shame it's not 1ghz though
[Blade General] Jekle_Ace:
I think you're getting mixed up. ARM11 = ARMv6 Cortex A8 = ARMv7, No difference all smartphones nowadays use ARMv7. But ARMv6 is commonly used in budget droids
[Blade General] hecatae:
Already found several drivers for this model in ZTE skate kernel source
[Blade General] LiverpoolsNo9:
Well that made that nice and confusing didnt they....
[Blade General] hecatae:
Now available on orange website
[Blade General] olyloh6696:
not much of an upgrade
[Blade General] fr0d0#2:
Also released this weekend:

T-Mobile Vivacity - identical to the SF2 but front facing camera as well as rear facing camera, plus 4 capacitive menu buttons rather than 3 physical buttons on the front.

(me too but don't tell anyone ;))
[Blade General] Pl4ub:
Wouldn't real upgrade phone for you blade people be second hand desire or galaxy S, still better hardware than blade 2...
[Blade General] olyloh6696:
yes, i would have thought it was a better upgrade.

but i think this phone is for people who dont have the original and want a phone thats cheap with decent specs.

kind of like the htc desire s compared to the old desire
[Blade General] fr0d0#2:
Had a quick look and ppl want a lot more for the S and the Desire ...almost twice the price. So the Crescent is by far the best option at the price.
[Blade General] olyloh6696:
I suppose, but its very similiar to the desire to desire s upgrade;

They beefed up the CPU slightly, added a front camera, and made the design nicer :)

Hi Guys

I managed to install the Sensation XE Rom on the normal sensation by changing the CID and i also managed to get the phone to detect and download the required OTA update, but when the OTA download finishes i get a message that this update is not intended for my phone and the phone does not install it

is there a manual way to install the update ? I have tried to install it manually through recovery but it did not work, i am getting errors, and ideas ????

Thanks

Hi,

Has anyone else ordered the Streak 7 from Dell recently and had the EDD change from a day or so ahead to over a month? When I ordered it, it showed shipping next day, and if I go as if I'm ordering another, it still shows shipping tomorrow. So why would my EDD suddenly change to 12/26/2011? Thanks.

Google would have been much better served to come out with something more along the lines of iTunes, a program you install on your computer and tell it what folder to watch for your music and a few minutes later, there is your 10k song library! Not to mention the stupid music manager issues. The very first time I installed Google Music to my computer I got some stupid "can only use 3 accounts on this machine" error and I couldn't upload my music until I found a workaround.....change the Mac address of my ethernet card. That's pretty weak. I think Google missed the boat with this one.

[Off-topic] bleach168:
Overall, it's a great service. But Google made some mistakes,

1) No matching service.

2) Should have gone at least 25k songs to match iTunes match.

3) Not available outside the U.S.

4) Can't buy songs from your phone... yet.

The sharing and independent artists features are impressive though. And best feature of all.. IT'S FREE.
[Off-topic] unseenvision:
So now that this is released does anybody know if they will ever have an easy sync like iPhone and iTunes for our Android phones?
[Off-topic] N8ter:
Songs you purchase from google don't count towards the 20k song limit. So, that really isn't much of an issue, IMO.

I love how they do carrier billing for tmobile, too. Guess it will come to other carriers soon.
[Off-topic] superchunkwii:
1) a one-time issue when first uploading and only IF you own a lot of music. Just leave PC on overnight once and you're good.

2) iTunes cloud isn't free and then it still eats up all your local storage.

3) Will be soon. Plus you can use a proxy to get around it.

4) New market is being delivered as we speak. Not an issue, just takes a few days to push the app out to 100million+ users with varying phones and networks.

The sharing, artists, g+, is all awesome.

My only issue is that android app is still a little cumbersome and has an occasional issue with shuffle feature and replaying of same song. lol.
[Off-topic] Gadgetz:

[Off-topic] Gundea:
To be fair to Google, that's not a decision they made out of stupidity or ignorance. They decided that that was the best way for them to avoid any responsibility if their users decided to upload copyrighted works without the proper licensing. Since Google in that case doesn't touch the files at all it gives them a better legal standing. IIRC Amazon also decided on going this route with their cloud service, but Apple didn't, probably because they have a better track record with the labels or some such.
[Off-topic] JeffBenjamin:
I agree, I'm impressed as well.
[Off-topic] djones722:
I'm not impressed. The web site is lacking itunes like basic functionality. Unless I'm missing something, you can only make entire albums available offline, not individual songs. Lastly, whatever you choose to make available offline is loaded to the devices internal memory. There's no ability change default setting on where to store offline music, such as an SD card.

I think the missed an opportunity to offer a standard for music on. Android. They could've created an entire ecosystem, like itunes. I hate managing music on my computer with media monkey, only to find out those updates didn't make it into the Amazon MP3 app. Until some of the above mentioned changes are made, I'm sticking with Amazon.

You can make entire albums available offline, just long press on an album and select make available. And you can change where the music is stored in the setting menus.

Ok, the screenshots are from my phone, and the photos are from the tablet. Both have the same (market) version of Google Music, but the tablet version seems like it is locked into "landscape" mode - meaning, the tablet menus act the same way in portrait, as the phone version does in landscape.

[Off-topic] MartyLK:
I'm not impressed. Try managing the music that uploads, or try stopping the uploading process. I found that music was showing up on my phone's Google Music player that I didn't want and the only way to delete the music was one song at a time only from the phone. There is no way to manage or delete albums, artists on the PC or phone. And there was no way to stop the upload process shy of closing out Google Music.

For deleting the unwanted songs, the only way was to delete the entire music library, done on the PC. This still doesn't delete unwanted content from the phone...even after refreshing.

As far as I'm concerned, and after the issues so far, GM sucks so bad it 's a crime.
[Off-topic] Gadgetz:
That's not entirely true, but I still agree with you that GM leaves much to be desired. I didn't find a way to delete an entire album, short of deleting each song individually, which you can do from the phone and the pc. If you go into the song list on the pc, you'll see a tiny white arrow in the bottom right hand corner of the song title, click on that and you'll get the option to delete. I don't remember how you do that on the phone but I remember I did it once. But yeah, horrible implementation and nowhere near what the Android music experience should be in this day and age. This wouldn't even be cutting edge if it were released in the 90's, let alone 2011!
[Off-topic] carlosfpr:
Google Music rocks!
[Off-topic] MartyLK:
My main issue was stopping the upload process. I would have to exit the PC program to keep it from uploading. The interface I solved by uninstalling the GM app from my phone and using a much better, and paid, music app which would find and pay only the files on my card.
[Off-topic] upichie:
I'm sure Google assumed that when you selected your music folder, you selected your music folder—not your folder of birds chirping in mp3. If you ****ed up, blame yourself, not Google.

And if you uninstalled Google Music for a paid app (that's infinitely better in every single way, of course...) to play music off your SD card, then you had no reason to use Google Music in the first place. If you don't need nor want it, of course you're not going to like it. Add to that the fact that you're a fanboy—and not an Android one—of course you're going to hate it.

I seriously lol'd when you said you uninstalled it for a better app that played music on your sd card. Totally missed the point of Google Music there buddy. :p

Google first took the wraps off of its Music Beta service back in May, and six months later the service has had its beta tag stripped and is now open to all. Users can store up to 20,000 songs for free using Google Music and can stream their collection using their Android device. Google has also added a music section to the Android Market, where it'll have "millions" of tracks available for purchase in a 320kbps MP3 format.
