Gives a good feel about ICS, I won't report anything since I was messing with the system files to see if I can get bluetooth and camera to work.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] AidenM:
Thanks everyone.

Yes the Lockscreen will be buggy.

And I don't know about the /sdcard2 bug, perhaps you should ask Dexter_nlb (as he fixed it) but i think it is just vold.fstab not mounting it in /sdcard2/

If we had dual-boot like other HTC devices then maybe you wouldn't have to flash over HC.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] mcord11758:
Fixed build prop to get rid of lockscreen issue and market. Just replace reboot. Dexter must of accidentally changed something that caused the issue

Are there any other mirrors for this? Eager to try but can't get a download to start! :eek:
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Dexter_nlb:
sorry, i probably did mess it up... i was trying too many strange things and the build.prop was probably at a different stage than the vold.fstab :)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] mcord11758:
No worries, I took the build prop from your original backup and added the lines for sdcard2. I had tried this on my own but could not get the Vold.fstab correct.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Togadood:
Please make a mirror, FileFactory is saying that all the download slots are in use. I want the ics bragging rights :[.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] gamefreakgcb:
Yay! This looks interesting. Hope there's a stable version soon. After trying out ICS on an HD2, I want ICS for my S2 and the flyer. Hope this happens soon. Thank you developers.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] AidenM:
I'll make a new mirror for the next release with the updated build.prop. MultiUpload is down, so is Megaupload, Mediafire doesn't work, Rapidshare has SH!T upload speeds and what not. Any suggestions on mirrors?

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] AidenM:
Ok this project is gone. I've been taking a break from the flyer scene and come back to find ports of MIUI, CM7, and ICS. They've done a better job then me, so i think it's time to close this up.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] YOSEFE:
It might be helpful for you to join up with other devs on this.

If its not too much, could someone please extract and post the correctly sized keyboard from the Rom, so that we can use it for the SenseXXL Rom.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] mcord11758:
I could do this later, I would suggest looking in android general for the newest swiftkey beta that is availbale for free. it works well but do not use the tablet version as the lcd density is set to 240 on the one port and the tbalet version needs 160.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kardain:
Here's the keyboard apk.

http://db.tt/EO8DSG68
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] IP IHI II IL:
Agreed. SwiftKey (phone) works perfectly for me. Won't let you install the Tab version 'cause this port still thinks it's a phone.

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] mhkabir98:
I was hoping for the sense keyboard, but thanks anyway.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kardain:
Thats the keyboard embedded in the rom...I can pull the gb or hc sense keyboards sometime tomorrow. Maybe one of those will work instead?

via Tapatalk
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] mhkabir98:
I have tried that before, the HC or GB keyboards crash as the screen density is wrong.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kardain:
Yeah, I noticed that too. A free alternative is GO keyboard. It fits the 240 density. One of the skins is close to sense, not exact... But works all the same.

#ICSforFlyer
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Dexter_nlb:
I think this one died, with the birth of a paid version.

And personally i could not resolve the strange display scrolling issue, which identified the rom as being a DHD port and no real display driver support.

Luckily the One V port is working semi-perfectly (somehow for some ppl). so im happy and we got alot of supporters on it.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] FrostyOrDie:
Where is there a paid version? Never seen anything about it

So Long, And Thanks For All The Fish
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] AidenM:
Indeed dead, with Dexter as the new main
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] AidenM:
Alright guys, this project is officially dead. I realize some people used it even with Dexter's ICS port out because this was AOSP. Drew Garen has released a newer port and will have core features (wifi) working soon. Thanks everyone for feedback, helping out, etc.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] YOSEFE:

Hello,

There was problem in my htc flyer p512 ... i unlocked it then installed a recovery cws also.. then im trying to install a rom in it but no rom is working on it it stuck on a welcome screen .....

kindly suggest me ....
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] AidenM:
Maybe, it depends on the features you want. Some things, like Camera will be very very hard to fix without source.

Torrent it is.

Also for VERY PATIENT downloaders:

skyfire-aidene.co.de hosts my download at like 100 KB/s :p

Edit: no torrent actually, my internet speeds are horrible so it would be useless. I'm setting up an FTP server for my own stuff and it will be there.

If you followed the guide no need to do it again however you must have followed the guide.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] AidenM:
New version everyone! Using minus.com for uploads

I think that file is corrupt.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] gamefreakgcb:
Camera is not a big deal for me. The pen on the other hand is. Was said to no one in particular actually. Just throwing it out there as a wish. I dislike people who rush me in my work, I dislike doing the same to someone else. Thanks for your efforts. I might just try this one out after a few days.

can somone mirror 1.1, 1.2 is corrupt, and 1.1 dosent download properly.. (NO OPEN D/L SLOTS!)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] lawguy:
I am using the 1.1 version so I don't have a working SD card and I wanted to give my thoughts on this ROM and thanks to the devlopers involved.

First, I am surprised that so much of it works as well as it does. This is not to say that there are not issues that probably make it insuitable for daily use. It is a helluva start though.

If you look past the issues you can tell that ICS is a more refined (and better) version of Honeycomb. I note the following:

1. No Email App - I had to download and manually install the general email apk with exchange support. Could you include this stuff in the ROM? It all works well and I synched with my Exchange server.

2. No Video - You Tube and other web video appears not to work. This seems to be a common problem with ICS ports.

3. Touch Interface. I find that I have to make longer flicks than on Honeycomb to move between things or to scroll. This is the most annoying thing so far because the interface is not laggy in and of itself.

4. The other things you mention that don't work don't work.

The good stuff:

Polished. Better thought out than HC. Flicking away notifications. Closing open programs through the task switcher. Widgets, live wall paper, 3d accelleration all are working.

I think that a lot of work remains but it is a very good start.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Whoareyou:
Mirror? Please ^_^? :)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] AidenM:
Ok seriously I is reuploading 1.1 and 1.2. The zip is fine, my upload was corrupt.

The Mail app - it is pixelated at takes up only half the screen

Flicking i dont know.

And Youtube wont work. No HW drivers.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] lawguy:
I used some combination of apks from this post (I don't remember which) and email worked just fine:

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] azndan2:
Great job on the port! Is it just YouTube app that doesn't work? Can I still play videos in Mx video player?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] AidenM:
I'm not sure actually. Can you test it for me?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] mcord11758:
Was able to play a movie using rock player
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] azndan2:
So I guess non-flash or non web-based videos play fine.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] AidenM:
Cool then! So completely broken video isnt the problem.

Edit: kept on reuploading my file, kept on saying corrupt until i tried opening the file ;). Recompiling and going to upload.

Trying a new method of compression to make it very small. Please test this zip and at the same time ill upload the normal one.

I don't use dropbox because I use my space there for personal stuff and it is filled up.

I think there is a bandwith limit too.

=====================

USB mount on PC is not working

swipe (all directions) is not pressure sensitive

Bluetooth is not working
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Whoareyou:
I would have to say leave in the HTC Bits and release a different ROM with AOSP bits, some people like the HTC bits ;)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] AidenM:
I'm gonna need Gumby for the stock stuff.

Plus since the slightest change could trash it, plus even with HC you can't get stocks settings. But status bar and icons ill try.

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Dexter_nlb:
I have made the 4.0.3 rom work with STOCK files from a AOSP setup..

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] azndan2:
flashing now. Pretty excited! Ill report back later. Thanks for all your hard work aide.nm
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] azndan2:
I can confirm that the scrolling is different from a stock honeycomb rom. On honeycomb if you flick a little bit the screen will scroll a lot more than it will on this rom. So' this results in a lot of misswipes. Whem I swipe to change screens' sometimes the screen won't change it wil just bounce without changing screens.

Also hardware decoding in mxvideo player doesn't work. Software decoding is fine :-)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] AidenM:

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Snow_fox:
I thought they released the HC source for the flyer.

I am guessing you already used everything you could from there?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] azndan2:
Supposedly there will be an official ICS release for the flyer _yeah right_. What if HTC released another tablet that had ICS on it? Would that be helpful in getting camera, bt, etc. to work?

No because the hardware would be different.

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] mazook98:
Will we?

I really don't think that'll be the case:

Since the View was just oficially mothballed, (and it was a more advanced device), I wouldn't hold my breath for "official" ICS for this device, ever.

Does anyone have any reason to think differently?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Dexter_nlb:
can you provide details on "more advanced" compared to Flyer?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] AidenM:
Hello everyone,

I recently received an email from Skyfire Inc, stating that this was copyright infringement and I need to change the name of the ROM. So any ideas?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Dexter_nlb:
if the company is in USA and this webserver is european and your download is european. the name does not really matter for such small stuff..

Thats pretty much like have a Samsung Galaxy S ICS release in this forum but the name is copyrighted by Samsung and cannot be used for the ICS release.

but, wth.. call it "SkyFlyer" or Skyfire Flyer ;)

they got

"SkyFire Lab Inc." which is different from "SkyFire" actually..their association is an application, yours is a custom rom, two different product areas. and one never found on market, but a problem when searching Google.

another one: "Skyfire Broadband Communications Inc" + "SkyFire Energy Inc" + "Skyfire studio".

I would guess adding "Flyer" to your custom rom name, would close their case..

There is no WiMAX in europe

Googled: there is wimax in Germany and Europe but because of superb 3g coverage here with speeds from rarely less than 3 mbit up to 42 mbit, there is no need for wimax here...

There is in the States because at peek times (WORKING HOURS) in cities there is virtually no 3g speed because of your crappy overall bandwidth... My poor uncle... Just not enough to for all people

And don't get me stated on cdmi... 2. phone for abroad?

Holy Moly:

I made a comment in this thread a couple days ago, just checked back:

Did I REALLY just read 2 pages of "butthurt" because I mentioned in an offhand comment that the HTC View is a "more advanced" device than the HTC Flyer? (because, last I checked, these were still BOTH just electronic devices that only cost 2-3 hundred bucks.)

In fact, last I checked, both of these things AREN'T your wives, your alma maters, your kids, your favorite bands, your cars, your religious beliefs, your political party affiliation, your stances on global warming, abortion, affirmative action, assisted suicide, the use of the Oxford comma, OR your favorite porn stars....

So quit acting like they are.

Get a freaking grip, people: Who fuc%ing CARES whether one of these two silly little Android tablets has a couple more features?

FWIW, I bought the Flyer, even though at the time, I could have gotten the View for cheaper, for development reasons only. But it really doesn't matter in the long run, because neither are probably EVER gonna be getting official ICS from HTC.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Flyer.michael:
I just don't like the typical American like you, seemed to be. Believing that everything in the USA is somehow better... Not seeing how bad having proprietary stuff is. Like cdma / measuring in bodyguards and laughing at other countries how backwards they are... But in your own backyard most places houses streets and overland telephone and electric lines look like in the former soviet union.

Just don't like that kind of American that knows nothing bout the world but from fox news and uses words like better ... superior regarding all American stuff.

Or maybe it was just because I'm pissed off in general lately :)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] jmz:
Ha. I never once brought nationality into this. I was speaking about me and only me. I have NEVER experienced this 3g slowdown your are talking about. I never once said mine was better. I did side by side comparisions before I bought mine. I saw EVO view had hdmi out and flyer didn't.

Typical American. I love that. Just shows how small minded you are
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] mcord11758:
