:) Thanks for the effort guys.

I'm actually VERY excited to see a more functional alpha/beta release! Honeycomb is such a step away from the traditional android we know :)

Would it be possible to just rip parts of it out like the music, youtube, gallery etc out as apks (like the gingerbread music leak?)

I look forward to playing around with this!!
[Nexus One Android Development] QTeknology:
Thanks !!!

It plays smoother with graph acc. ;)

waiting for future releases and videos
[Nexus One Android Development] hateem:
i did not bother reading the threads

but have u guys managed to put the martket on it and get it working?
[Nexus One Android Development] bypass23:
I dont have a data plan with my cell provider so I could'nt really test data...

In fact DJ_Steeve did fix that part and he told me he had gapps installed. Would need to be double checked with him but if he had gmail I dont see why he didnt installed the market as well all at once.
[Nexus One Android Development] hateem:
i tried installing gapps but it got stuck at touch android screen

edited the copy of the setup wizard, hopefully better luck
[Nexus One Android Development] hateem:
tried it, but gave me repeated force closes,

@ DJ_steeve, can u post the gapps u used?

Addition, used a thing i learnt from somewhere, managed to pass the force closes, on homescreen but no data connection :(
[Nexus One Android Development] maxib123:
Is it just me or has everyone got white on white on the keyboard in messaging?

is there a way to change this?
[Nexus One Android Development] N3xt2N0N3:
I know calling doesn't work but can send and receive text messages with this building at least?
[Nexus One Android Development] maxib123:
yeh you can, you can use data too... but no wifi yet
[Nexus One Android Development] N3xt2N0N3:
Nice, thanks for the quick reply!
[Nexus One Android Development] ngtfr:
I'm not sure but i think the resolution does not fit the nexus one either. ( even if build.prop says the opposite. )

If we would get sound working, I may use this alpha;)

It's just too sexy :P
[Nexus One Android Development] bypass23:
WRONG as the HC sdk requires a bigger resolution then the Nexus One is capable of for now.

remove the density hack in build.prop and you'll have endless Launcher2 FC since the Launcher2.celllayout is not included and you'll have a the old unlock screen instead in the middle only of the screen not even covering it all.

So without the dpi hack you dont get or see anything Honeycomb...
[Nexus One Android Development] DJ_Steve:
go look in the nook color section of xda for gapps on honeycomb :)

Stay on topic please !
[Nexus One Android Development] bypass23:
thanks for the input

its getting hard I managed to get it running on G1 without a device (mine is ****ed up big time)

I wish N1 ppl help me instead of all those zillions of request for devices I dont even own or can test...

Send me a device u want ported ill send it back otherwise its a pain in the ass...

And yet there is no magic it takes time...

I'm not willing to give a working patch one by one for u guys sry it takes too much of my own time
[Nexus One Android Development] bypass23:
yet before thinking of call working (which might be impossible for now) we need audio working first

backporting is not the solution at this point it requires more work or magic :)

backporting may be still a solution for some issues but not really relevant issues imo at this point now

anything working will always be patched but I just hope ppl understand this is a

tablet honeycomb SDK port

its NOT meant for Nexus One or any smartphone

more things are working on this Nexus Port compared to the emulator itself

Stop crying you already get missing calls notifications... any honeycomb tablet does that yet ? :D
[Nexus One Android Development] maxib123:
after fixing audio shouldn't calling be (well, i say relatively, although i dont know much about the developing side of things around here) simple... because the phone now connects, you can call the phone... it just doesnt show its being called
[Nexus One Android Development] robotnoize:
I'm here with an n1 what can I test? Used it last night for a bit. Would love to find the gapps I need to flash. Once this gets phone calls I will use it for longer than an hour.
[Nexus One Android Development] robotnoize:
I installed a market app from file explorer but it just wouldn't open. Guessing I had the wrong version
[Nexus One Android Development] maxib123:
apparantly wee need the "nook colour" gapps but i cant get them to open... talk to DJ_steeve about it
[Nexus One Android Development] bypass23:
if an1 is trying to help fix things make sure u check the nook color threads

they fixed a few more things and it can be merged prolly

but forget the xoom hc dump its basically almost useless to us

oh you should look at this thread : Modified CM Gapps for Nook Color running Honeycomb

[Nexus One Android Development] mkrmec:

Can't wait to see AOSP builds when it comes etc.

Sorry again check your PMs you will understand ;)

Can anyone test this gapps package : gapps-hc-20110120-signed

Let me know if it works I'll add to the OP I need testers tho since I don't have a data plan atm

Thanks !
[Nexus One Android Development] mykegger:
Gapps flashed fine for me. Market runs and syncs to my google account. Contacts sync as well, all seems fine.

Edit, calendar does not sync.

Gmail can be installed seperately and synced through account settings.

[Nexus One Android Development] maxib123:
These flash fine... its only market and google search tho... unless its only meant to be them?

Carhome, GenieWidget and SetupWizard were removed they are not working

The rest of the google apps can be downloaded on the market

Is this the sdk or is it a ROM ready to be flashed?
[Nexus One Android Development] maxib123:
I cant find any google apps in the market... in fact there are hardly any apps at all... my home screen on the market consists of one featured app - "HeyTell"

This is an sdk ... can be flashed tho

I'm not sure if i'm supposed to post here, but just a heads up i don't have a SIM card in and there doesn't seem to be a way to unlock it.

This will be pretty cool great work!
[Nexus One Android Development] OnEnExUsOnE:
Just flashing HC and the gapps now to see how/if it works!

Edit: So everything flashed and installed fine. But when it was starting up it went through the google colored "X" looking thing, then the basic "android" word. But then it says "Sorry!, The application Launcher (process com.android.launcher) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again." And so I press "force close" and it just goes to the lock screen, and then everything else works fine. I logged in with my google account. My contacts are there, everything is smooth and looking great!! I just dont know what that error was or even did.
[Nexus One Android Development] nicandris:
tried fruitninja just for fun... i have to say i am REALLY impressed! it runs extremely smooth, probably smoother than gingerbread!!

[Nexus One Android Development] futureshock:
hey there... just one question to the dev...

i tried to port this build to the HD2 ... because on miui its works without any modification to reuse the system folder...

but i think the HD2 kernels aren't ready for honeycomb yet...

is this a special compiled kernel for honeycomb? when yes what are the changes to "stock" nexus kernel??

the kernel boots up fine... but after that, when the boot animation should start the screen goes to black and thats all... nothing more!

thx for help!
[Nexus One Android Development] bypass23:
I'm using latest pershot kernel (droidbasement.com/db-blog/) its not meant for Honeycomb

Without adb logcat and adb shell dmesg thats all I can say for now
[Nexus One Android Development] N3xt2N0N3:
Try to edit the build.prop to make it mimic the Xoom's one.

here's a link to the Xoom's build.prop: click me

I didn't attempt it yet so I'm not sure if it will work.
[Nexus One Android Development] Bloodflame:
totally awesome! just decided to play around with it for a few minutes, even though there isn't much I can do without wifi. i love the lockscreen and how to move widgets. now I want a Xoom even more!! :D
[Nexus One Android Development] maxib123:
do we know whats being worked on at the moment?

or do we know if we can somehow change the white font on messaging at all? would be exteammmly useful if we could see what were typing :P
[Nexus One Android Development] bypass23:
I don't have much free time during the week due to RL job etc mostly give time and efforts during weekends...

I'm working at the moment on a wifi fix. I don't wanna give bad hopes but there is some progress. Without using the HC UI the device do see the available surrounding APs. Coolexe (desire port) mentionned he was looking at fixing the sound. We already shared fixes so it's not a bad thing that we work on different issues...

As for the Mms application display fix well I would have fixed it already if it was possible. Problem rely in the compose_message_activity.xml :

<TextView android:textSize="11.0sp" android:textStyle="bold" android:textColor="#ffffffff"

As you can see the textColor is set to #ffffff which is WHITE ! Hence the invisible text being typed.

Now I see everyone hey why dont you simply change #ffffff to #000000 !?!?!

The apk seems to decompile ok but it is not recompiled properly (FC) why ?

Well this apk is using API level 11 obviously since it is honeycomb. At the moment baksmali and smali are limited to API level 10. JF said he needs to have the AOSP 3 being released to update the baksmali/smali code to be able to decompile/compile Honeycomb APKs.

The only alternative I can think off is a 3rd party Mms application (if any work on honeycomb I haven't tested any) for now...
[Nexus One Android Development] maxib123:
i tried downloading the handcent apk from the internet but it doesn't make any difference because its not the messaging app that your writing on to ( i know the text is still white after you close the keyboard screen, but you can live with that) its the text on the keyboard screen... you can see the text on handcent but obviously its not much help when it comes to editing as you have to go back to the keyboard screen to do that

at the risk of asking a stupid question have you tried editing it only on the keyboard? or im guessing it doesnt recompile properly either?

are there any honeycomb compatible 3rd party keyboards out yet that you know of? i'd search the market but its not working properly
[Nexus One Android Development] bypass23:
Nice find tho I tho it was the Mms.apk the problem but you're right anything that use the Keyboard is white.

I havent tried the keyboard altho I'm 99% positive it wont recompile properly... The recompiled Mms.apk was atleast 300k smaller, smali is missing alot of things when its API 11.

I'll check to make sure tho but I doubt we get lucky who knows worth the 15min to try :)

As for compatible kb for HC no clue I havent looked into that since there is more important issues to look at.

For a more complete list of the market apps you can maybe check on androlib.com from your computer.

I think we need some build.prop edit to get all the apps from the market but it may break other things (honeycomb based stuff) so I'm not bothering for now.
[Nexus One Android Development] maxib123:
i would love to save you the trouble, but i have no idea how to do that haha

audio need to be fixed first....
[Nexus One Android Development] mykegger:
I installed the gingerbread keyboard in this rom and still get the white text in the messaging app, everything else seems fine. Gonna try a third party messaging app next.

IMHO, the gingerbread keyboard has some scaling issues (a lot of extra white space) but larger keys to type on. Food for thought.

Edit: replacing stock honeycomb messaging app with gingerbread messaging app fixes white text issue. This removes a pure stock honeycomb rom but I'm sure 3rd party apps should work as well (probably with stock honeycomb keyboard).

(Confirmed Handcent does work on stock HC rom)
[Nexus One Android Development] Blueman101:
Ok, i guess hearing the other party might be mildly important, I'll keep checking in. How is the resolution? I mean do some things appear too small on our smaller nexus one screens to read?
[Nexus One Android Development] maxib123:
its deffiniatly samller, but i dont have any problems reading any of the text shown on the display... i have been using it as a daliy rom since alpha 3

sry but lets be honest

this is a port from a sdk tablet os

try it on the emulator there is no audio or calling or thats prolly too advanced for you... yet we did fix things that were not working in the emulator what you want more ohh audio and call...

you suck for not providing any relevant information to help

I suck for providing test builds to the community if that please you

I just find it funny when there was rumors that hc 3 would req dual core and etc

g1 has a hc port and I do help em even if my adp1 is dead :)

pushing the limits !

Im not saying audio is imposible yet there is alot of work and if aosp drops it will be so much easier even if n1 wont be supported but who cares :D

we did well untill my adp1 died with ezterry and gingerbread on dream/sapphire unsupported just like Jean-Baptiste Queru said community will do an even better job !
[Nexus One Android Development] bypass23:
now for the wifi update well sorry... its not as easy as I did think for us

It's working BUT need adb shell / terminal script to be run before enabling in HC gui

Major problem is that the sdk was compiled with wlan0 as wifi device

Loading our wifi bcm4329 module ends up as a eth0 device

Hex edits needs to be done in libhardware_legacy.so as we dont have source

As far as I can tell we can mod it as long as it stays the same size

which bring an issue :

bcm4329.ko requires a firmware and need to be loaded this way :

insmod /system/modules/bcm4329.ko firmware_path=/system/vendor/firmware/fw_bcm4329.bin

I don't have the space in libhardware_legacy.so :mad:

I need to move files and duplicate them to a shorter path and pray it may fit...

yet we have to add firmware_path=/system/vendor/firmware/fw_bcm4329.bin + bcm2329 on every wlan instance...

just hex compare both files from cm7 or 2.3.3 and the sdk lib

as for further testing I should post this :

setprop wlan.driver.status ok
/system/bin/wpa_supplicant -Dwext -ieth0 -W -c/data/misc/wpa_supplicant.conf
/system/bin/dhcpcd eth0 -BKL
iwlist eth0 scanning

That's another issue without the iwlist eth0 command no ap appears in the HC gui as for now I dunno if that can be fixed all in libhardware_legacy.so edits

Setting wifi on in gui and once connected we are still screwed with dns :

setprop net.dns1 8.8.8.8
setprop net.eth0.dn1 8.8.8.8

Sorry I know alpha 3 doesn't have those files buts thats how it works manually unfortunately for now...
[Nexus One Android Development] maxib123:
Ahh :/

well i will wait patiently, i think i speak for every nexus one owner that has been using this when i say thank you for you work and effort so far :D much appreciated
[Nexus One Android Development] Alex240188:
might be a daft idea

would it not be possible to init a new device wlan0 and just symlink it to eth0
[Nexus One Android Development] samjam:
I used to use a linux utility called ifrename to rename interfaces.

Seems to use the SIOCSIFNAME ioctl on a socket obtained with iw_sockets_open in iwlib. I don't know if iwlib is provided on android, but you can grab the source anywhere - it basically opens a SOCK_DGRAM on AF_INET using the socket call. I guess socket and ioctl are both available - but I'm only guessing.

The man page for the ioctl is here: http://linux.die.net/man/7/netdevice

There may be various places in the kernel source or startup code where this can be done. If there is no good opportunity to do this on bootup, then I suggest a kernel module can be written to do the rename.
