I don't think they will stop. There's still so much to do.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] dhruvmalik:
What the strategy must be is to fix any pending issues and improve the stability. Once a Leak or more support for the Audio / Mali GPU is available, they will put the finishing touches and put out a Beta.

From there its all about how quick things get better or Samsung decides to drop a ROM.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] :
unfortunately it looks like i have to quote myself here.....Go to that thread and all your questions and answers and all links are there in first post.....

if you can help with regarding the porting over and have something useful that you might think the team can do with then leave it here...other than that link above says it all.. thank you:D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] atinm:
We (Codeworkx and the rest of teamhacksung) have nothing to do with this port as of now, so our status has nothing to do with this port either (sorry to post here, but since this was related to what development teams are working on this particular port, I figured it is fine to reply here). If we see git repositories from this port, we'd be able to see what work has been done and figure out if we can work with them. But at the moment we haven't done anything serious with this group that I know of, though codeworkx is keeping closer tabs just in case so that we can work together if we see some give and take.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] JonesWTF:
There's a huge difference between being open and sharing something that is no where near complete. Yes, betas are great to try out but what is out there right now, if we're all honest, is not ready to be shared.

It's amazing how many people are *****ing and moaning about this.

I'm surprised people don't cry about Google/Samsung/HTC not releasing incomplete software to them when they're in the middle of developing the latest version of Android/TouchWiz/Sense. These would then be same people that would get all pissy because something doesn't work.

Just give these devs time to do their thing and you'll get a quality product to play with.

Samsung has released Source Code For The Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus!

Source: http://www.androidpolice.com/2011/1...galaxy-tab-7-0-plus-and-the-galaxy-tab-10-1n/

As you folks already know, Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus sports Exynos + Mali and runs Honeycomb

[Galaxy S II Android Development] soulicro:
Hey guys.

Last night I sent Samsung a polite email explaining the current ICS port effort, and asking them to consider releasing the source code for necessary drivers to get it working.

Well, they replied:

Notice we have the attention of the Principal Engineer, and that he and his team are now aware of this thread!

Also notice I crossed out his name/email/phone numbers, because I don't want him getting swamped with emails/calls/whatever.

So, what exactly do the developers need? And I do mean exactly - I don't want to waste this guys time. I'm monitoring this thread closely, as soon as I see a reply stating what they need I'll shoot him back an email.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] L10nH34Rt:
Its been said before in the CM7 thread, that the source code is not their's to ditribute. They have an agreement with the manufacturer to keep them closed source.

Doesn't hurt to try though I guess xD
[Galaxy S II Android Development] fa2k:
did the devs need the source code from the missing devices? would it not be enough to get the compiled .so files ported from the ics sdks?

I mean in the original Samsung ROMs are compiled drivers to, isnt it?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] L10nH34Rt:
It should be enough, but they would still need to do some hacking in order to get them to work (kinda like a guesswork as to what "commands" the drivers send to they Android OS), it would be much better if the devs had source code...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] fa2k:
that can give samsung the devs on the way without a violation the agreement with the manufacturer

of course!

But take what you get :-)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] soulicro:
I just wan't everyone to know - I don't want to spam this thread with things that aren't directly concerned with development - AKA these emails... I only put up that one here because I needed actual development-related information - which I got, after following the advice of going to the IRC channel.

I'll keep posting any and all updates regarding my email conversation with them over on the Q&A thread only.

Why people crazy & stupid .. i dont know..

May be they want increase their post count or want to put some thing without any knowledge(crap).. Just time pass..

one must think before posting any thing .. is it relevant,does it harm any one.. they think they can blow any thing by writing f*****g stuf..

Common Guys.. we have a very gud developers who are giving us best featured ROMS and always thinking of new.. by dontaing their valuable time for us...

if we hurt or abuse them.. who ll stay here.. only we have to play with Stock....we have already lost very gud developers ..please stop this Crap..

Please try to Help Others who r new to this XDA to ROM but not to make waste time pass comments here there...

Final Word:

Feel the Power of Custom ROM's

Respect Devs..

Dont make or use abusive language..

Make comments if necessary & related..Dont put time pass comments.. ther me be lot sites where u can use r waht ever language u want..

Try to help as much as u can to others..

We have wasted so much of dev's time otherwise we could have been Better ICS rom for us on SGS2.

Please Check in SGS1 theread.. they are already nearer to Stable ROM(working cam), the guys r there(including me) helping them by testing and giving valuable commenst & time to give us better ROM.

This includes all s2 XDA people including me..

Thanks for reading....

[Galaxy S II Android Development] h20pt:
This is some good news! Instead of arguing about who's the best coder/dev and that the community would be better off without some people, you should be discussing/helping about what's really important: ICS Porting and new achievements by the devs team every day :D

After all, last time i checked this was the development thread :)

EDIT: And don't forget: We're actualy where we are because of them all - AdamG, codeworkx, atimn, Pete, Paradoxxx, chadouming, nebkat, Matriak31, Coentje44 ,Tegrak and everybody that contributed to the work done so far! So we just have to be grateful and stop talking crap about them or about their modus operandi (no ETA's, no BETAS, etc.)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] vnvman:
Indeed. This is a great achievement and also a big slap in the face to some ungrateful kids :rolleyes:

Anyway i still hope that the requests we mailed to Samsung will be fulfilled, that would give a big boost.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] :
Guys..The other thread is re-opened again. Now i hope this thread here and my one are the only ones to do with the ICS porting till an official release...

I have opened the other thread again for you guys to carry on the way we had that one as before...For updates regarding what is happening...If its teamhacksung if its aosp if its whoever is doing the porting over for ics all news will go to my thread...One general thread for all to share news with what is happening...So lets keep all posts, debates and discusssions there and lets leave this one to peace....

I respect everyone who is working on this project and lets leave them to it..They are updates on twitter and from the other blog sites of the devs....Thank you to all

Do the devs ask for cash? NO!!!! They are doing this for the community, so its really shameful how some ppl describe them

[Galaxy S II Android Development] conantroutman:
No, your post explaining you side of things may have remained had it not been tainted with a ridiculously offensive comment.

You clearly need to give some serious consideration to the content of your posts.

Whilst the other post since my previous one are reasonable advice in that respecting the work of developers is the way to go, they are never the less, still off topic.

Once more........

NO MORE OFF TOPIC POSTS.

DEVELOPMENT RELATED DISCUSSION OF THIS ROM ONLY.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] conantroutman:
Banned.

You were warned several times.

This moron is a prime example of how not to conduct yourself on XDA.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] cchant:
The only question is what is working or not from building from that git? Be a waste of time if it isn't anything better than what had been available
[Galaxy S II Android Development] RevenantX:
I think the problem is Mali and samsung parts that dont have drivers supporting the new framework/features etc.

the hardware needs commands to perform the new features and the hardware manufacturer is the only real one that can communicate with their device correctly (unless they make it open source) as far as i'm aware.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] irtehun:
Ok so is this project dead or what? Keep reading all types of different things about it being dead.

Also a link to the latest version will help this be a centeralized hub, this project needs some organization, in my opinion.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Dr_Ash:
Guys I hate to burst the bubble but we're not gonna have a "fully functioning" ICS ROM until Samsung or someone else releases ICS mali 400 drivers. The current ROM is working with software acceleration only as they can't get it to boot using the mali 400 for HW acceleration.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] :
i know you guys probably already had a look at this website but if anything can be found there or use here it is

http://www.malideveloper.com/develo...pus-linux-exadri2-and-x11-display-drivers.php
[Galaxy S II Android Development] King Shady:
Obviously... We all know it won't be hardware accelerated without the proper drivers. I think most people will be happy just to see it have some things working :P. Great progress btw guys.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Dr_Ash:
I don't think I know very much. But there are two things I am really looking forward to in ICS:

1. Proper multi-core support (so we can use our Dual Core CPUs more fully)

2. HW accelerated UI for increased speed and "slickness"

I just don't thin we'll get the latter without a new Mali driver. Unless we are somehow able to port a gingerbread Mali driver into ICS - as it seems that the galaxy 7 plus driver isn't useable at the moment.

I would gladly be wrong however and I certainly hope the guys make it work, really appreciate all the work they are putting into this port :)

EDIT: and I will be donating BTW, I believe people should be rewarded for their hard work. Love the community.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] :
And HW accelerated UI means more devs will be building applications that are worthwhile and we can rival the iOS finally. And its always nice to see people on this thread now actually posting useful stuff rather than nonsense :)
