I'll throw $20 in the pot.

Sent from my MT4GS - CM7
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] rawdaddymagraden:
Ok throw 20 as well
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] verne2k:
kinda pointless imo, better wait and do it for cm9 (in case we wouldn't get it anyway)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] androidowns:
Thanks for your opinion..

CM9 is what we're aiming for. If Cyanogenmod makes it happen then the pot shall go to them. If someone else or another team steps up then so be it. Let's keep this thread productive and show some support - or keep it moving. :cool:
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] FrankAbagnale:
I'll throw $10 into the pot.

I don't know how or where I chip my money in, but when its time, original poster please PM me.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] micahman:
I got 30 on it.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] wiswis:
U guys should jusgt raise money for a dev to buy this phone because we don have many get that guy who made fuax kernal (I forgot his name) I think he stated in the past that he was interested in this device
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] androidowns:
If a recognized developer comes along and is willing to take this project on then we can arrange for him/her to get a device ASAP.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] sonicjam:
guys chill its being developed by a CM developer right now heres a screen.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] androidowns:
Chill? We are chill.. lol. Stop posting jibberish and stay on topic. We are offering a bounty for a reason. If you are not with us then keep it moving. Posts like "chill"and "kinda pointless" do not belong here. So please if you don't want to support this bounty thread then keep it moving. We choose to support this and that's what we'll do. There's nothing wrong with rewarding the developer(s) for the hard work put in.

Im so poor Xo just payed this Quaters tuition fees. I had to buy a Nook Tablet because my books cost to much. YoY if i knew i would throw in 100. Gimme a week. I wanna see a Valpha build :D
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] dmarco:
Count me in for 20 also. Can't hardly wait for ICS 4.0 on MT4GS :D

Count on me for $10 if it at least boots.

$15-20 if everything works including the Camera. :D

The bounty is for a stable ROM for every day use. This I can imagine takes time so we are patient. I would hope to see some kind of beta before Christmas but I don't want to push it. I will try to update the OP every night (EST) for the total of the bounty.

CM team working on ICS

Hello,

I am working with CyanogenMod on bringing ICS/CM9 to the Doubleshot. It has been a labor so far, but as of today, System UI works and multi-touch touchscreen has been implemented. I think this is more progress than others have experienced with the MSM8660 platform.

Anyways, I just posted an update to my G+ about it. Here a YouTube video I took demonstrating multi-touch functioning:

[YOUTUBE]6b-BBXB9xEc[/YOUTUBE]

I will be updating G+ whenever I make a new step forward. Next on the list is Data (both HSPA and Wifi), sound, and other things that make it a phone :)

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] dung8604:
How awesome. is this why cm7 hasn't seen an update? Thanks, kory
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
Yep, he updated the CM7 alpha thread to let us know.

Absolutely worth it. I'd much rather see him/them working on CM9 then CM7 since ICS source dropped.

They spoil us, they really do.

The race is on for your bounty!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] androidowns:
OP and bounty updated. Very excited to see kornyone working on this. He did a great job with CM7 and I know CM9 will raise the bar. Lets get more folks chipping into the bounty.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] dung8604:
I realize that, but partially disagree. I would like to see cm7 updated to fix the major known bugs. It shouldn't be too hard. Then I would like him to work on ics. Just my opinion, I'm grateful for everything he's done for us regardless.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] verne2k:
how do you know? if it wasn't too hard i bet he/the cm team would have already fixed them...

anyway, debloated roms are good enough for now, i think it's better to have development focus on ics/cm9
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] dung8604:
I don't know, but I suspect that the problems haven't been addressed because he is working so hard on ics
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] beezie916:
OK if someone can port ICS to the original Android the G1 then someone should be able to get it done here...maybe we should all chip in and get the dev responsible for porting ICS to a phone not even capable of using ICS to come here...seems people are positing ICS builds all over for different phones...it wouldn't surprise me if someone had already did it on the MT4G or Desire....lol
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Litesorrows:
I wouldn't say its hard. It's more so all the time you have to put in it. The ICS build was complied from an armv5tree. It's compatible with the phone. They built it for the Droid Eris, so the G1 wasn't out of the question. But we just need to support our Dev's, and put a lot of these :D :D :D :D D:D :D:D:D:D: D:D :D:D

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] androidowns:
Well kornyone of Cyanogenmod stated he is working on CM9 for our device. This takes time and he posts updates on his Google+. He did post up a video of the progress so you guys can check it out in this thread. We have to be patient and of course support our devs in any way possible. I am sure this project would be close to finish towards the end of December.

ICS is coming our way. If you guys want a decent AOSP build, try Undeads build from Rootzwiki. I'm using it as my daily, the CM here was a wee too buggy. (i.e camera lag).

Whats his Plus name? Is it his Dev, or real name? The link is mobile, to lazy to open XDA on my phone,
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] androidowns:
Just search kornyone and you're good.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] androidowns:
And stay on topic.. this is a bounty thread for CM9 (Android 4.0) on the HTC Doubleshot. Stop dropping the name undead and giving updates of what he's up to. I think many people here are tired of it. No response is needed so don't drag it please.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] dmarco:
Quite true, let's stay on topic and focus on the ICS build that we are all eagerly waiting for :D

BTW.... How much is the bounty up to now???
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] androidowns:
Surprisingly only $210. I'm sure we have a big Doubleshot community but not sure why not many supporters. Imagine if we can get each person to donate just $5. That goes a long way especially when we're dealing with quantity. I was checking out a bounty for CM7 on the SGS2 and it was over $3000. Same scenario as here too, they had a dev working on the project and was just trying to support that dev for his/her hard work cus this **** is not easy and is very time consuming. So like I said even $5 goes a long way. I update the OP with the total of the bounty and has a link to a spreadsheet of the break down.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] CoNsPiRiSiZe:
K I'll put up 5 not sure I could do more
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] htcg2:
il put in ten

i donated 10 to him already w/o the bounty, but il throw in another ten if the ics is a really stable build
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] dillalade:
I'm throwing in 100

Dudes, we have a rock solid phone beggin for ICS. up your ante guys. Let's get this sh!t done!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] beezie916:
I don't get this "bounty" crap....we will see if anything happens right now we don't really have any devs who are pushing evelopes much at all....90% of all the roms available are all variations off of mysense....there was an inital release of cm7 but been no improvements since it came out...the kernel sucks battery faster than drinking water through a straw....VU has a beta on but the single dev from VU has released a few small patches but thats about it and promises releases of the new sense 3.5....Undead had a semi AOSP ROM and someone has posted a pure vanilla one as a repost from Undead over on ROOTZWIKI...you all are running tooth over nail thinking korneyone is working on it...but really?...why don't you start working with a real development team...I don't know lets see who does what and then we can talk rewarding someone's work...a bit crazy that we now feel the need to "pay" a dev to dev around here...I have been using android over a year and a half and Devs do it for the thrill...fun...and limelight to say yeah they did that...not how much money they can make off it...it's not a job its a hobby. No one had bounties out when Gingerbread came out...froyo....eclair...so why now....I don't get it
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] leoilios:
Because ics = hardware acceleration and utilizes both cores for a super smooth, gpu ui rendered rom. The iphone has had gpu rendering forever. Android 3.5 has it and we don't even have that
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] beezie916:
So we should pay someone to what they have done for fun all along?..wow
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] michaelmab88:
I know what you mean... The problem is that there really aren't that many devs that own and or are interested in the doubleshot. The pyramid stole most of doubleshot's thunder. Kornyone is the only dev I know of working on a doubleshot ICS build. I've had this phone since the day it came out and my patience is growing thin. I certainly can relate with the desperation that leads people to donate in hopes of speeding things up.

One thing to note about kornyone's kernel... he just made some changes in his repo to the kernel in reguards to perflock. This is progress in the direction of being able to underclock the phone and prevent the battery drainage.

Also kornyone is highly qualified to take this project on. He's done it before on a different device. He's got the know how.. It just takes time. I'm going to ask him if he needs help... Hopefully I can help in someway to speed things up.

Update (20111201)

I have made progress over the past week getting ICS operational. I recently fixed: audio, wifi, 4g (RIL), keyboard input, more.

ICS does not properly work with our slide keyboard. When the keyboard is closed, the orientation will not work (it's stuck on landscape). When the keyboard is open, orientation rotates just fine. This the opposite of desired effect, and has become a minor roadblock for me. The lights on the keyboard don't light up (thought I have a functional liblights in place), and you are required to hold Shift or ALT keys when using them as modifiers. This is what I am working on now.

Once I have this part figured out, I am moving on to HW acceleration, which CM9 has been working hard on for the MSM8660 platform. Right now I am using stock gralloc with some libs from HTC Puccini. This allows usable UI, but slowness with video rendering and such. I need to get hwcomposer from Qualcomm up and running.

Of course there's also the camera, bluetooth, usb gadgetsm (tethering and usb storage), and a few more things to fix. I expect to fix all this OK, but the camera is up in the air right now.

I have been using it as a daily driver now that RIL is working and I have audio. Right now it's showing amazing battery life -- it was at 78% after 7+ hours not charging (and five phone calls, Gmail sync, G+ sync, Exchange push messaging). The CM guys are noticing better battery life across the board with ICS, and the prediction is that it has to do with no Camera being active.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] axxtran:
that's good to hear keep up the good work! :)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] CoNsPiRiSiZe:
Wow, that's amazing... Any way we could see a pre alpha or however you'd title it release right now or soon? Or will we need to wait for hardware acceleration to be implemented for a "cm9" release of any kind?

Id love to run it because of the battery factor... Most ROMs out ATM have serious battery issues. That's y I ask.

Thanks for all the hard work you've put into this ROM for or doubleshot, more then a lot of developers do.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] androidowns:
OP and bounty updated. Thanks kornyone for the update, your hard work is appreciated. Thanks to all the supporters, your money is appreciated. :cool:

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Braccoz:
awesome news, thank you (and the cm team) for your hard work

also, i'll throw in $10 to the bounty (which i'm basically assuming will just go to kornyone :D )

Anyone have any new information about CM9 and ICS 4.0 for our MT4GS? Did some searching and this is all I could find.

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Braccoz:
cm9 isn't out yet for any device... besides that, kornyone is working on it for our phone and that's all.

we will probably start seeing cm9 builds (for random phones) in january, and our port will for sure come later as there is only 1 dev working on it

I would not expect to see anything for some time to come yet.

kornyone has been dropping updates on his progress, which to be honest is a courtesy that is completely unexpected and appreciated - but don't go hassling the man over it.

You could always do it yourself if the wait is interminable...
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] FrankAbagnale:
Plus its holiday time and he's probably not worried about this at the moment. I assume we'll get updates a week or two after the new year.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] wiswis:
I don't think its fair u gave all the money to the cm team

The tbaleden guy made anvics biuld and it runs great and camera worrks I think he deserved some of the bounty
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Braccoz:
tbalden is doing quite an amazing job indeed, but the bounty is for a full working rom so it's a little early to start talking about who is gonna get it...
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] tbalden:
Let it go to the cm devs, I've spent a lot of time on it, but far less than cm team will to get the stuff going from source. Also I would have to give it in large portion to rmk. Just hit the thanks in the pyroice thread, that will do. :)

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] wiswis:
Well the cm guys olny had multitouch working at the ttime and they didn't release anything but tbaledens rom has almost everything working
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] leoilios:
Well for most apps, one core runs the app, the other runs stuff in the background. One comparison is antutu vs quadrant. Quadrant only uses 1 core, just like most of the android ui... I'm pretty sure I remember reading about this somewhere when I was learning about the dual core phones and upcoming ics, however I don't have a source to give you guys.

ICS Splashed Mt4gs 3.0
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Braccoz:
on a side note, you seem quite skilled, why don't you join forces with the CM team?

you don't really know how far they are now. the other day they finally merged the msm8x60 framework into their codebase so i think they resolved most issues and probably got hw acceleration working properly...
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] tbalden:
I barely have time for this, it just happened, one step after another lead to a rom that's working. It was the holidays that I had this amount of time. But patching the pyroice rom will fit in my timeline, and if kornyone will need any info or file I can share ill will humbly do so asap.

sent from HTC Doubleshot pyroiced
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] wiswis:
Yes their probably very far but they never released something for us to test at leeast tbaleden releazed an alpha (wich is amazing)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] CoNsPiRiSiZe:
They can't yet. CyanogenMod has to say they can release it
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] cybot_x1024:
Has the bounty been given yet?

In my opinion, the best way forward would be to get a willing and experienced dev the phone, because that way the rom developed would also get updates later on.

Getting this device in a few days by the way, really excited!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Etrick:
As this device progresses towards end of line, u will see more progress. That's usually when things get good for unadopted phones. People come and milk every drop out of it. And as u see more and more sites offering it for free with contract or refurbs for cheap, u could see the elite g1 devs migrating in as this device has the all imoprtant keyboard... Some of the devs we have will get better, porting ics is a challenge and future projects will become easier for them. If another phone drops, with a keyboard, or similar screen, chip, etc it gets better...
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Braccoz:
no, as we don't have a fully working ICS rom yet. our best chance is still CM9 which Kornyone is working on
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] cybot_x1024:
Finally got confirmation that I will be getting the device today :)

Have this report I'm writing for a project I have been working on for a while now; Was thinking, when I'm done in about 2-3 weeks, I should also get my hands dirty with the little I know about building roms... I'm sure that should help the cause.

Besides, we can't possibly have too many devs can we? :D
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] CoNsPiRiSiZe:
He hasn't mentioned CM9 on G+ in a while... Anyone message him about it?

Just my spare change.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] AndroidBotx:
I haven't seen any updates either. I think he may have gotten a different device but I could be wrong. Hope I am wrong.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] CoNsPiRiSiZe:
He got the GNex but he isstill supossed to dev for this

Just my spare change.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Braccoz:
my guess (with evidence from an interview with cyanogen @rootzwiki) is that the CM team is pretty much stuck until official ICS updates start rolling out so they can grab proprietary libraries and drivers (this is true for most phones, not only doubleshot)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] _atlien_:
cybot is right. When they begin giving this device away (or something close to that) the deving will begin in earnest. That said, Undead, Blue6IX, tbalden, wildchild and many others have kept us in the game this long and I'm very grateful for their sacrifices and contributions.

Sooo, how long til T-Mobile begins wind things down with this device?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] AndroidBotx:
Unfortunately I got this phone for free from Tmobile cause my G2 (I freakiing loved that phone) screen went out and this was the alternate exchange. :( hopefully we see more devs G2s get broke and in return come here. I am using Undeads Liberty rom and love it. It has beats audio and is super stable. And its android 2.3.5 which is a good upgrade from 2.3.4 this phone has been stuck with. I tried Pyro Ice but its just not as fast or stable. (Tbalden is doing an amazing job, no discredit to his work).
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] tbalden:
new stable version is around the corner for pyroice. Ive been able to fix the sensors part finally. The new sensation base makes it pretty smooth, and oc/uv kernels are/will be available. Camera/camcorder already fixed earlier. Sleepof death situations gone with removing the patched wificalling libs. Its going stable tonight. :)

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] masterkamon842:
I personally believe the bounty goes for tbalden, he was the first to give us a stable ICS rom, both senseless and sense. He def earned it, CM9 isn't out yet, Pyroice is, so the bounty must go to tbalden. It's only fair.

My 2 cents...
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] asidrave:
+1...................
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
I'd agree, but didn't throw in on the bounty so not sure if that counts for anything - can a good reason be articulated why Pyro-Ice doesn't meet the criteria?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] tbalden:
If anyone who would have given part in the bounty wants to show monetary appreciation, can do it to my "donate to me" button anyway. Just as dillalade had done, he was donating coz he found that the sensation rom desensed is worth for donation. So I say keep the bounty for cm9 and anyone who wants to donate can do so anyway. Not all of the flashers has to be content with a port like mine, but those who are, can or already did donate.

I think that porting over a leaked rom shouldn't count.. that and I wasn't impressed with the overall experience using pyro ice... I will donate to cyanogenmod when they officially release cm9..

That isn't to say I don't appreciate the work that was put into other ics roms... thanks to any devs working on the doubleshot!
