Hi,
I own a Toshiba AC100 loaded with Android 2.1. Toshiba promised since the launch an update for Android. Nothing is out today.
I saw that a guy has achieved to port Honeycomb to Nook Color using the preview sdk. I really would like to know from you experts if this would be possible on the AC100.
Waiting for answers.
I second that question, would be very much interested in it.
Your not going to get any other answer then this. ..... wait till nvida and Toshiba release the source. Developers can't properly port or develop software or a Tom to run on tetra hardware for hunycomb untill they have the drivers(source) so to speak. I am sure if you look in your device specific thread for the Toshiba folio100 u will see the answer similar to mine there......
I heat that Pipposanta of tabletroms has a honeycomb port for the AC100 that just got released.

If you would like to use a SD version, please read and download V1.8 below.
V1.8 is the final SD version.
If you would like to boot this SD version with magldr, you can replace with a new rootfs.img which is patched by nzxtneo.
NexusHD2-FRG83D V1.8 SD version (PPP + RMNET)
This is the latest, fastest, stable and clean *stock* Android build for HTC HD2.
This build includes Google Nexus One's OTA update (FRG83D - Android/Froyo 2.2.1). (released on Nov. 18, 2010)
Quadrent score is about 1866 when using a sync file system.
Complete backup website (Find the older versions in the link below):
Mod edit: Link removed
The default kernel is hastarin r8.5.3_oldcam, please visit his post below for more information:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=787588
Release Notes:
"Stock" build except blocking ads (hosts file is replaced) and adding "H" (HSDPA) icon and battery % icon
By default it is hastarin's EVO based kernel (support for PPP), but you can switch to N1 based kernel (support for RMNET) easily.
Switch to RMNET by executing "conn_RMNET_with_michyprima_R11_AXI.sh" or "conn_RMNET_with_huanyu_HAVS-BFQ-OC-UV-AXI_925mv-0.1.d-n1.sh" in the GScript folder and then reboot.
Switch to PPP by executing "conn_PPP_with_hastarin_r8.5.3_oldcam.sh" or "conn_PPP_with_hastarin_r8.5.3_eb_oldcam.sh" in the GScript folder and then reboot.
oldcam means the old camera driver for Nexus One build.
eb means the older battery driver with extended battery support.
Install "GScript Lite" from Android Market to execute these .sh files.
E.g.: You will see the text below if executing "conn_RMNET_with_michyprima_R11_AXI.sh" successfully.
RMNET is ready.
michyprima_R11_AXI is ready.
Finished.
Reboot required.

Create 512 MB data.img (You can specify the different data image size in startup.txt)
Rooted: superuser privileges (su and busybox) included
Some apps included (Delete any apk files in the AndroidApps folder before first boot if you don't like any of them.)
What is working:
WiFi
GPS (works great. I got a location within 15 seconds.)
3G/HSDPA
5MP Camera with flash, auto focus and zoom
Camcorder with flash
LED status notification
Keypad LED control
Auto Backlight
Bluetooth (BT headset is fully supported in calls, music streaming/A2DP, and files transfer.)
Compass
G-Sensor
Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync
WiFi Tethering/Hotspot (works with RMNET. For PPP, please install android-wifi-tether on Google Code)
USB Tethering (Please install android-wired-tether on Google Code)
USB Mass Storage (You can copy files from PC to PC. But Android apps cannot see the copied files in the phone before rebooting.)
Tips:
The battery power consumption on standby is about 5~7mA (less than 1% per hour) without SetCPU installed.
To my knowledge, the battery life is related to the WM ROM, radio version, and all the apps running in the background.
The default CPU clock rate is set to 245MHz ~ 998MHz, but you can install SetCPU to overclock.
Turn off the live wallpaper for better performance and battery life.
Install LauncherPro for a smoother home screen.
I have included the following apps in the AndroidApps folder, they will be installed at first boot:
DSPManager 1.0.apk
ES File Explorer 1.4.8.5.apk
Fancy Widget 1.3.0.apk (Time & Weather)
Superuser 2.3.6.1.apk
TeslaLED 2.0.4 Gala.apk
About 3G/HSDPA:
The stock Nexus One ROM only shows 3G icon in the status bar no matter if you are in HSDPA or not.
You can check under "Settings > About phone > Status > Mobile network type". If it says HSDPA, you are on the 3.5G network ("H" Network).
With v1.8, I have included FRG83D_stockbar_add-on_H_icon_and_battery%_icon.zip in the "Android/root" folder.
If you don't like this add-on, please delete the folder named "root" located in the "Android" folder before first boot.
Mod edit: Link removed
Please install MoreLocale 2 from Android Market to enable more languages if needed.
Please visit Nexus One Help website and try to find the answer when you encounter any software issues on NexusHD2-FRG83(D). Thanks.
Installation Instructions:
Extract the Android folder (with all files in in) to root of your SD Card. THIS IS IMPORTANT.
If you already have an Android folder on your SD Card DELETE IT OR RENAME IT, because this version MAY BE INCOMPATIBILE with older releases !!!
After copyng everything to your SD Card ensure you have at least 600 Mb free space for data store
After you have done all steps go into Android folder and tap CLRCAD (for working sound), and after that just tap HaRET.
On first run when there is "Creating a new datastore" just give it time to complete, and on first boot be patient and give it time to load everything.
If you get some strange errors, or Android does not work, try to reformat SD card and try everything from the start.
HD2 needs radio 2.08 or above to run Android. If you never upgrade your radio, you may not be able to run Android on HD2.
>>>> All apps will now function and install correctly. If you have an issue installing an app from the Android Market or another source, then go through the following steps:
>>>> - Go to Settings > SD & phone storage > Unmount SD card
>>>> - Now install your app, it will now install correctly and function fine

1% ~ 1.2% per hour when being 3G standby.
You may change the kernel (zImage) for better battery life.
E.g.: huanyu's kernel is about 1%: 925mv_BFS_BFQ-0.3.1.zip

You need to modify "/system/build.prop" by yourself.
change "ro.sf.lcd_density=240" to "ro.sf.lcd_density=180" or whatever you want.

Cyanogen 7.0.3 (Android 2.3.3)
Current version: galaxy5-v3.41 - 4/June/2011
Video Reviews: Russian, Brazilian Portuguese 1, 2, 3 (thanks to the uploaders)
Threads: XDA
Hey folks,
This is a port of Cyanogen 7.0.3 (based on the stable Android Gingerbread 2.3.3 release) for the Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500 (Europa) phone. The current port status is beta - most functions work, but it may not be suitable for everyday use, unless you can live without the missing features (see errata below). If you have programming experience, any assistance in resolving the remaining issues will be much appreciated. See the working features and "errata" listed below for more information.
Special thanks to Motafoca for starting Cyanogen development, and for his constant assistance.
WARNING!
* READ THE ERRATA BEFORE ASKING QUESTIONS OR USING THIS ROM. The most important entries are written in red.
* If you fail to read the errata (and ask silly questions that are already answered), I will personally find out where you live and hunt you down.
* This is beta-quality software, and some functions are still not available compared to the Froyo builds!
Instructions:
1. Download the latest release, and extract the .tar file from the .7z/.rar archive (using WinRAR or 7zip).
2. Flash .tar file in Odin with One Package option - do NOT select any other options (such as debug).
3a. If upgrading from Eclair or Froyo (any version), you must data-wipe.
3b. If you are upgrading from an older Cyanogen version, read the changelog for the newest release if you need to data wipe.
3c. If you are flashing a hotfix, you must flash it after flashing the full release. Data wiping is not necessary for hotfixes.
4. When the Google Setup Wizard appears, I recommend that you leave the phone idle for a minute or so. Applications are still installing in the background, and completing the wizard early may cause some icons (such as Market) to go missing. If you were impatient, and some icons are missing, install Titanium Backup and use the "unfreeze" feature.
5. Optional: during Google account setup, you may want to disable the backup feature of Google Apps. Some users have reported that it causes lag (which will be investigated).
6. Optional, but highly recommended. Upgrade your baseband to the version recommended for your region. This is explained in the next section.
Baseband
The baseband (also known as the MODEM/AMSS) deals with telephony, mobile networking (3G/GPRS) and GPS. Unlike Froyo, Cyanogen is sensitive to the baseband version you have installed, and some functions do not work properly (most notably GPS) when using older basebands. For that reason, I recommended that you upgrade your baseband to the latest version when using Cyanogen. Follow the steps below:
1. Make sure you have a working backup of your phone's official AMSS (in case you have problems). There is no way to backup the AMSS from a running phone, so you must have a full copy of an official ROM. You really should have a backup of your official ROM, as you will need to flash it before sending the phone for warranty repair (for whatever reason). Refer to this guide for more details on how to acquire a backup of your official ROM: http://androidforums.com/samsung-galaxy-europa-5/321656-manual-device-cant-updated-workaround.html
2. Go to Settings -> About phone -> Baseband version. If your baseband version is already the same version as you intend to flash (in step 3a or 3b), then stop here. You don't need to do anything else.
3a. For Europeans, download the I5500XWJP4 baseband.
bb. For the Americas and & rest of the world, download the I5500LUYJPE baseband.
4. When you have downloaded the appropriate baseband for your region (and you are sure that it needs to be upgraded), simply flash the .tar file in Odin with the One Package option. Data-wiping is not necessary.
5. Once your baseband is flashed and your phone has rebooted, go to Settings -> About phone -> Baseband version, and verify that it is now the correct version.
6. Note: you only need to flash the baseband once. Flashing Cyanogen itself will not change the baseband. If you flash an official Froyo ROM that was downloaded from Kies or SamFirmware, your baseband will be changed to the version that was included in the ROM package.
Release list/changelog:
* v3.41 - includes v3.4+hotfix2 changes; improved default kernel settings for stability and performance (tested by ghusdark, reported to fully solve wakeup problems); tweaked cache settings; added mpeg4 to list of working codecs (but the rest are still not working). Data-wipe will not be necessary, but you should disable app2sd before upgrading if you are using a release older than 3.4hotfix2.
* v3.4 + hotfix2 - 2/June/2011 - removed old patches from kernel (were causing system instability, such as framework restarts when first connecting to wifi or batch restoring apps in Titanium Backup); updated kernel source against I5503 2.2.1 source code; removed Titanium Backup from default install (as it was conflicting with the Pro/Donate version); fixed audio issues such as headphones not being detected during call / microphone not working during speakerphone call; fixed issue where Market cannot download large apps; FM Radio app will be installed (despite it still not working) in case people want to try and make it work somehow. Hotfix2 enhances app2sd. It now keeps /data/data in the phone's internal storage, which prevents lag and slow download speeds. You must use ADB to enable/disable app2sd, and if you already have app2sd active, you must data-wipe after installing hotfix2 (even if you installed the previous hotfix1).
* v3.31 - 31/May/2011 - improved Bluetooth reliability (now less likely to fail during initialization). Data-wipe is highly recommended if you are upgrading from 3.2 or lower. You can skip this version if you don't care about Bluetooth.
* v3.3 - 31/May/2011 - fixed bug where phone would not wake from sleep; fixed reboot when disabling Bluetooth; changed wifi sleep policy back to defaults; fixed wifi reconnection problem when waking from sleep; converted system filesystem to EXT4; removed galaxy5_defaults script (it was causing Market and some other icons to sometimes disappear); removed need for 1 minute freeze & bootloop on every flash; added more preloaded apps: Street View for Google Maps, Blade Wifi Fix, Titanium Backup. A data-wipe is highly recommended for this version.
* v3.2 - 30/May/2011 - fixed wrong microphone problem (again); enabled H264 codec (DIVX and MP4 videos don't work yet, but HQ Youtube video now works); improved galaxy5_defaults script (will no longer cause Market or other icons to disappear after data-wipe); preloaded more apps (Gmail, Youtube, Maps & AdFree Android); changed readahead values (to help prevent lag, especially for app2sd users); now uses Froyo 2.2.1 (JPE) proprietary files; changed kernel config (potential fix for phone not waking from standby - please test). Data-wipe is not necessary but recommended if you have problems.
* v3.1 - 28/May/2011 - decreased Davlik VM size to 16m, set proper minimum CPU frequency/CPU scheduler settings (to hopefully fix unresponsive phone when left overnight); reduced audio latency (fixes ringtones). This version is highly recommended. Data-wipe not necessary if upgrading from 2.992+, but recommended.
* v3.0 - 28/May/2011 - removed "test" from build name. Fixed touchscreen sensitivity (regressed in 2.994). Increased audio driver latency (fixes audio lag - games will now run 100% smooth). Fixed one other bug, not worth mentioning [edit: it was the reboot on first incoming call bug ]... So tired. Gotta sleep.
* test2.994 + hotfix1 - 27/May/2011 - script fixes/enhancements: 1) get_macaddrs - no longer blocks the system_server on each boot; 2) galaxy5_defaults - runs more efficiently (which means that first boot after a flash will not be delayed as much); 3) madteam_app2sd - several fixes, including a more efficient transfer procedure, and will now set the writeback journalling flag for partitions properly; 4) 04galaxy5 - readahead speed tweaks are now different between STL and MMC devices. Slightly modified microphone fix in libaudio so that it initializes the microphone only when an input device is requested (to hopefully prevent some audio lag). Recompiled entire framework with different TARGET_CPU_ABI (was armeabi-v6l, now armeabi - this appears to reduce system lagging). Removed (currently useless) FM app + some orphaned .odex files. Tweaked keyboard size. Tweaked ADWLauncher to reduce battery usage and help avoid accidental widget removal. Summary: several bug + lag fixes = better performance and reliability. Update to this version is recommended. Data-wipe not necessary, but recommended. Hotfix1 (thanks to Motafoca/npmap) includes a new kernel with several patches to EXT4, bugfixes and a new Simple IO scheduler (optimized for flash devices).
* test2.993fix4 - 25/May/2011 - completely fixed reboot hangs (when turning off or rebooting phone); potentially fixed VPN support; tweaked touchscreen (should be more responsive at edges - please test); fixed various boot loop problems related to app2sd; fixed lockscreen widget (no longer obscures caller); reduced keyboard size; added Live Wallpapers; added USB tether option (not yet working); improved app2sd/caching to fix lag issue; updated kernel (new performance tweaks + TUN module added for VPN support). Data wipe is required if upgrading from 2.991 or older. If you have enabled app2sd in version 2.992, please see errata step 2d.
* test2.992 - 22/May/2011 - now based on Cyanogen 7.0.3 (stable version based on Android 2.3.3 - hopefully less bugs for us!). Fixed problem with missing Market icon; improved delay during first boot; upgraded audio driver (slightly less lag); added swap support / new app2sd implementation (see errata). Data wipe is required in all cases.
* test2.991fixed - 16/May/2011 - fixed Bluetooth & WiFi MAC on first boot, improved scripts so that data wipe should no longer be necessary when upgrading between Cyanogen versions; fixed WiFi disconnection problem; partially fixed the problem of the lockscreen hiding the incoming caller's name; enhanced status bar icons (now uses: Wifi / Mobile Data / Bluetooth / Brightness / Sound / Orientation). This ROM should now be considered BETA quality. NOTE: There was a slight problem with a script, so I reuploaded the fixed version. You may need to re-download and flash again.
* test2.99 - 16/May/2011 - updated Cyanogen source; TELEPATHY NO LONGER REQUIRED -> for those who missed the joke, the microphone problems is fixed, so you don't need to practice telepathy with your friends while making calls
* test2.98 + test2.98 hotfix3- 15/May/2011 - updated Cyanogen source; tweaked settings to keep launcher in memory and allow purging of unused assets (this should greatly reduce lag and improve multitasking); more improvements to boot scripts; Bluetooth now uses proper MAC address (see errata); tweaked cache settings for disks; changed GPS libraries (it should now connect to satellites a bit faster). Hotfix3 fixes Bluetooth speed.
* test2.97 + 2.97 hotfix - 13/May/2011 - updated Cyanogen source; improved 2D performance; fixed slow WiFi connection on first boot; fixed WiFi tethering; fixed 3G/WiFi DNS (now uses DNS address from your APN/access point instead of forcing Google's DNS servers); added "Download" mode to list of reboot options (helpful for your once-a-day reflashing ); reverted to stable Google Apps version (because newer version still has problems); improved boot scripts (cleaner + faster boot); updated kernel (the beginning of some performance tweaks). The hotfix will fix some sound-related lagging caused by a bad kernel configuration.
* test2.96 + 2.96 hotfix - 11/May/2011 / 12/May/2011 (hotfix) - updated Cyanogen source; fixed WiFi signal, mac address & slow DHCP resolution; improved boot scripts; phone will now power off/restart faster (and will also no longer crash during these periods); phone seems to stay cooler (possible battery savings?); moved download cache to data partition (so you can install large apps from the Market, such as Angry Birds Seasons).
* test2.95 - 06/May/2011 - updated Cyanogen source; improved boot scripts so that Bluetooth is initialized properly; updated Google Apps (Talk should be voice-enabled, but hasn't been tested)
* test2.94 - 06/May/2011 - now using open source lights library; fixed USB Mass Storage; fixed headphones; removed unnecessary Cyanogen statistics and update apps; tweaked cache settings
* test2.93 - 03/May/2011 - now based on lge_thunderg code; fixed camera & video recorder; Broke USB Mass Storage and headphones.
* test2.92 - 01/May/2011 - rebuilt against first Cyanogen 7.1.0 (Gingerbread 2.3.4_r1) code merges, fixed WiFi for new version of Gingerbread; Broke USB Mass Storage.
* test2.91 - 30/Apr/2011 - converted system to ext4 (more speed + stability), new kernel (improves performance), fixed regular headphones (thanks to Ronison & Motafoca for patch), fixed wifi disconnections (hopefully), added Google Setup Wizard (no longer crashes), removed RomManager (we can't use it yet), battery life improvements
* test2.9 - 28/Apr/2011 - fixed app crashes (Angry Birds/FPSE, etc.), fully rooted, Phone dialer now locks during call, Market can now sign into Google account, tweak to prevent possible bootlooping problem. Thanks to Motafoca for discovering the crashing problem!
* test2.8 - 27/Apr/2011 - fixed: USB Mass Storage, brightness controls, battery usage, misc telephony bugs, SD/internal drive access speed
* test2.7 - 25/Apr/2011 - fixed 3G, Bluetooth (partial), ADWLauncher scrolling speed (fixed permissions)
* test2.6 - 24/Apr/2011 - fixed lcd density (now 120); added low dpi resources to fix various graphical problems (such as lock widget, boot animation, overlapping widgets, badly sized icons); added FM Radio app (but hardware is not yet working).
* test2.5 - 23/Apr/2011 - first release.
Working:
* GPS [1]
* WiFi
* WiFi tethering
* 3G
* Brightness controls
* Video
* Audio (recording and playback)
* Touchscreen (no multitouch, don't ask because I'm not working on it)
* Root
* Camera (and video recorder)
* Microphone
* SIM Contacts
* MAD Team App2SD [2]
* Swap [3]
* Telephony
* Sensors [4]
Partially working:
* Bluetooth [5]
* SIM Toolkit
* Battery [6]
* Hardware encoders/decoders (H264/MP3 working, others not).
Not working/unknown:
* USB tethering - we need a newer kernel, or backported kernel patches.
* FM Radio
* Kies - note: you should never expect a custom rom to work with Kies - Cyanogen or otherwise. You can always downgrade to an official ROM to restore Kies compatibility.
Errata:
[1] GPS does not work with the newest Americas baseband ending in JP9. Check your version at Settings -> About phone -> Baseband. If you have the new baseband, you should downgrade to the JP2 baseband to get GPS (and possibly also 3G) working correctly. GPS is confirmed to work correctly on all European basebands (so far).
[2a] This rom uses a custom app2sd script that I wrote, called madteam_app2sd (based on Motafoca's idea). All folders are put on the SD card, but to prevent lag, the EXT4 partition on the SD card uses a separate journalling device (stl14, which is usually configured as the /cache drive). The phone's original /data partition (stl13) is then reconfigured as the new /cache drive. Additionally, all drives are configured to use EXT4 writeback journalling, which improves performance.
[2b] App2SD is disabled by default. To enable, run madteam_app2sd on from an ADB shell. When you run the command, your phone will freeze for a few minutes and then reboot.
[2c] Toggling app2sd on or off will *not* cause data-loss - all your data is transferred normally. The script also does a free-disk space check on the source/destination drives, and will refuse to change the configuration if there is not enough space available to complete the requested action.
[3] Swap is disabled by default. Run madteam_app2sd swapon or madteam_app2sd swapoff to enable/disable. Changes will be permanent (i.e., swap will be activated/deactivated on every reboot).
[4a] Although the sensors work fine, the sensor daemon is draining a lot of battery. With sensors enabled, the phone generates between 800-1000 wakeups per 15 seconds; for comparison, other phones do around 50-100 wakeups per 15 seconds with sensors enabled. More wakeups = more battery used, so this is not good.
[4b] With the sensors turned off, the phone does just 70-80 wakeups per 15 seconds. If you wish to conserve battery, therefore, you may wish to disable sensors whenever possible. The sensor toggle icon is the furthest on the right in the drop-down notification bar.
[4c] Thanks to testing by LoopMind, we now know that Froyo has the same problem with high wakeups as Gingerbread, so this is not a problem with my port.
[5] Bluetooth has two issues:
[5a] Sometimes Bluetooth will refuse to turn on. This is because of a timing conflict when trying to insert the patched firmware into memory. This problem happens with other Samsung phones, and currently the only known workaround is to reboot your phone and try again. You will have more success enabling Bluetooth if you try when there are no CPU hogging processes running in the background.
[5b] Bluetooth pairing works perfectly, but file transfers do not work properly. In my own testing between my phone and laptop (via a Bluetooth dongle), I noticed that file transfers will only work when the phone is set as discoverable, and the file transfer is initiated within the discoverable timeout.
[6] Battery usage is higher than Froyo. Although sensors are a large part of the problem, it is not the only cause. We are investigating.

This port should look identical to any Cyanogen port (aside from the different screen resolution). The first post has some videos.
I tested it and it's great!
i am now back to froyo because i couldn't backup my contacts via kies...
is there any app to do that? and also the calendar maybe?
if i could do that i would go back to cyanogen 7 i guess
now a few point:
- the keyboard; ist to big in portret mode so you can only see 1/3 of the screen
- the radio doesn't work
- nothing else
so great work but you have to fix some things like the phonecall bug...

i am now back to cyangen 7
i used phone backup 2 for my contacts...
and i also tried a full benchmark with quadrant and my score is: 863! (froyo is like 500) that higher than the GS

I originally started porting ICS to my beloved nexus one the very same day google released the source back in November. I had very little knowledge and no experience porting android. It took 2 days to sort countless build errors and get it booting, only a few days later i was able to release my first alpha (where absolutely nothing worked) It has come a long way since then, with hundreds of hours invested on my part and undying support from this wonderful commutity, I am pleased to announce: as of 2.1.0p11 this rom is /almost/ stable. However it will remain in alpha/beta (whatever you want to call it) a while longer, but the majority of people will find this usable as a daily driver.
For those of you not following this thread. You may not know my nexus died. As in the NAND finally gave out ((bootloader) rbchk: Total 1191 bad blocks!!). And I was able to get a replacement on ebay for $142.50 USD. Paid for entirely with your donations! Thank you to everyone who donated (i can't appreciate it enough). I look forward to bringing you the latest and greatest Ice Cream Sandwich to your n1's.
I have spent many hours and sleepless nights on this. So if you like it please feel free to hit that donate button above that picture of me.

Q:Screen wont come back on, the buttons light up but i have no screen?!
A: Try taking out your sdcard. If it works you need to reformat your sdcard and whatever you do dont use clockworkmod!
Q: Im getting lockups and have to pull the battery to restart?
A: Easiest way that seems to do the trick: Goto: Evervolv Toolbox -> Performance -> Processor -> change Min Freq to 384Mhz

You must install blackrose hboot before flashing ICS. Instructions.
BlackRose
You must increase the size of the system partiton to fit ICS to at least 210MB
*4/14* I had previously recommended 210 system but am now changing that back to 220. The size of ICS and mainly Gapps is growing and with 210 system on the a2 release, after gapps there is only 6mb free space. That doesnt give me very much room to grow on and can cause problems with people who have bad blocks on the system partiton.
RECOMMENDED: System 220MB Cache 10MB Data 206MB Download
System 210 Cache 8 Userdata 218 Download
(or make your own with the Blackrose installer).
All past builds will work just fine on either layout 210 and 220
Future builds might not fit on 210 as of a2 it is pushing it.
If you are installing for the first time choose the 220mb system.
Flash:
Code:
fastboot flash hboot hboot_brcrust_220-10-206-ICS.nb0
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot -w
If it flashed correctly: after the 'reboot-bootloader' command you will see TexasICS on the second line (under blackrose)

main thing here is camcorder, native omx encoding is working but decoding is still broke so you can record videos but cant play them back. Issues: video is capped at 15fps so it is a little choppy, recorded video is rotated 90 degrees
usb tether support: not native, using the motorola usb app not included (push to /system/app then the toggle in settings will work) i'll probably never include this app in the build since it runs as a service and that bothers me

Older Builds
Evervolv-Perdo-2.1.0p14 (3/27)
update to gralloc/hwcomposer (slightly smoother)
enable singlepdp ril feature. (should allow easier apn switching)
omx libs included. native hw assisted video not complete in framework (although youtube hq now utilizes the adsp heap, so that progress)
wifi: eap pwd support
mms: misc updates
kernel rebuild with xz compressed, genlock update
much better multitouch experience (theomy)
camera preview works (kushdeck) barcode scanning (tested w/ google goggles) (panorama, video have issues, also there is a memory leak, leaving the camera app open for 2+min will cause OOM to kill the system server possible causing a reboot)

Evervolv-Perdo-2.1.0p11-passion (2/27)
Phone should not lockup anymore when rotating display. Landscape mode is still strange, status bar is rendered halfway off screen...but only when rotating right...going left its fine.
Moved to cayniarbs stock(ish) kernel with my kgsl commits and ksm/zram backported from 3.0
EVtoolbox: new menu 'performance' control zram(aka compcache) and ksm, both disabled by default. ksm will reduce memory overhead by 10-15mb with minimal cpu usage (0-1%). ive read that ksm likes to have swap (10% zram should be enough) but youll have to experiment and see. also added 'processor' menu (also from cm) to view/control cpu stats.
Apps2sd: support moving /data/data, (run 'a2sd install' again and choose y when asked about appdata) im still wary of how to handle wipes when appdata2sd is active. so ive added two functions to a2sd: 'nodatasd' which removes appdata2sd flag and optionally removes the appdata from sdcard and 'nosysdata' which removes only the system appdata (ie anything starting with com.android) from the sdcard
Browser: i revised hwcomposer. redering is faster < 1 to 2 secs max under heavy scrolling
Camera preview is still broke.
Devhost was broke while i was uploading this so everything is just up on the mirror site.

Evervolv-Perdo-2.1.0p9 (2/16)
whats new:
kernel update: 32bit color (fixes gradient backgrounds)
hwcomposer: rewrote from scratch for qsd8k. (main fix is screen off animation)
statusbar: new toolbox, settings button back to opening settings (swipe to change screens). notifications back to stock behavior. toolbox can even be turned off in evtoolbox
browser: slowed rendering, (fuzzy text takes a few seconds to clear up) is much faster now. (1-2 sec instead of 4-5)
known issues:
reboots: check here for initial workaround
removed omx libs due to build error (just use the ones from p8 if you really want them)
rotation still broke, seems to lockup the most on the home screen.
Code:
kgsl kgsl-3d0: |kgsl_mh_intrcallback| axi write error interrupt
and everything else that was broke in p8
updated bug list thanks mrhohoha

Evervolv-Perdo-2.1.0p8 (2/10)
Going forward with release. Nothing major changed since pre-p8. Still same major issues as outlined >here<. But its working good enough mainly releasing for those itching to try out chrome beta.
Whats new?
Massive kernel upgrade: misc wifi updates, fix ext 2/3 mountisg issues, add in call recording feature, updated kgsl (3d driver) to version 3.3 (cherry-picked partial upgrade to 3.7), other misc updates required for new kgsl driver. source is temporarily at https://github.com/drewis/tiamat-kernel/tree/wip9
Rom: now build with proper ICS OPENGL support (ie 100% hardware accelerated)(well more like 80-90% for now). I still have several issues to sort before hwa is working properly but this is a great start (imo). Screen off animation not working due to hwcomposer issue.
Notes:
This build is much less stable than p7 (or lower) but faster
You must turn off auto rotate in Display Settings or you will experience lockups that require a battery pull. (i know whats causing it but it will be a fairly difficult fix)
kernel build #119 which means i build the kernel 119 times to get this far, and that number is much much lower than the actual number of times i built the kernel before i got it booting and (mostly) working. Just something to think about, in terms of how much work it took to get this far
camera preview dont work but still takes pictures. also does not include rapmv78 newest fixes for panorama and barcode (didn't seem necessary to include them sinc camera preview doesnt work)
Gapps need to be flashed separetly.

Apps2sd: modded scripts.
now has dalvik-cache to sd. just run 'a2sd install' again to activate
swap support (if you have a swap partiton on your sdcard)
new help menu run 'a2sd' without arguments to see
Note: all apps2sd info is logged in logcat. Its at the very beginning under the evervolv banner.
USB: native usb mass storage - almost but not working yet (but we're closer)
Note: even though it doest work we now have some annoying usb and adb icons persistent in status bar. sorry i tried to rush the usb fix into this build and didnt feel like taking it out after it didnt work. (we're gonna start porting new usb gadget eventually to fix this)

Evervolv-Perdo-2.1.0p2-passion
Init.d support.
Included my homebrew a2sd that just sets /sd-ext/app and app-private on the first boot (assuming you wiped with fastboot (actually i think it works without wiping as well but untested)) all the apps already on /sd-ext will then show up without further involvement. (if you wiped with recovery it probably removed the apps on /sd-ext. You can prevent this by going to advanced and only wiping cache and userdata.)
If you dont want that. remove /system/etc/init.d/05mountext and 10apps2sd then flash dark tremors.
Google TTS should now work (was missing a library)
SuperUser should be working.
Removed some extra fonts (saves like 2mb)
e2fsprogs and bash are actually included in this one.

Merge in surfacetexture mod by rapmv78. No more "unable to dequeue native buffer" errors.
So this is basically a combination of rmcc, TwistedUmbrella, and rapmv78 egl mods.
It seems very smooth and usable therefore; im am releasing two builds one for blackrose(the one i posted), one for stock.
You might get a random offset error but it will still work just fine.

Stock Evervolv with these additions:
Merged it TwistedUmbrella egl mods
Added gapps, Bexton's UMS with notifications, bash, htop, rsync, other cmdline goodies
Use N1 boot animation
Gallery works, Maps work.
Haven't had a single crash in 1 hour (make that 2 hours) of use so far. I even watched a video on youtube.
Might be the best one yet (let me know).
Proc usage while playing youtube video:
EV-Alpha1 ics-passion-ev-alpha1.tar.bz2 - 127.2 MB
I joined with the Evervolv team.
This is stock evervolv ics (with my passion device directories).
These are build without opengl but with the rmcc egl hacks and the old gralloc.
This is an eng build with strictmode disabled. So all 'extras' that come with eng are included. (except strict mode)
I added gapps. and Bextons usb mass storage app.
Tested sound and gps they work.
Other than that gallery crashes, boot animation is too small, maps won't load.
Pedlars notification widget and CMSettings aren't in this one.
Nothing drastically different from alpha13. Just a different build tree.
Alpha13r1 ics-passion-alpha13r1.tar.bz2 - 134.3 MB
Exactly the same as alpha13 but without opengl enabled.
Difference: Notably slower, but all the apps work and no crashes. This is much more usable than alpha13. Im gonna stop messing with opengl until we get a proper kernel.
Alpha13 ics-passion-alpha13.tar.bz2 - 131.4 MB
In my failure to bring real hardware accelaration; here's a little hack for you.
There is alot of hype floating around about hardware (gpu) acceleration. The truth is nobody with adreno gpu has it. They only have software acceleration. Some have gotten it to work better than others. Personally i have not put very much time into the 'software hacks' being used. Because heavy kernel mods need to be made to get proper gpu acceleration; on this I have spend nearly 40 hours on with no notable progress made. I'd say in total I have spent 200+ hours trying to make this rom work but it really isn't an easy task. This rom is still very unstable and won't ever work properly until we have proper gpu acceleration. For general purpose (ie. Calls, Messaging, Web Browsing, Music) it works fine, please dont expect more from it. Thanks for testing.
Includes latest from CM.
Ril has these options available in build.prop:
ro.telephony.ril.v3=signalstrength,skipbrokendatacall,facilitylock,datacall,icccardstatus
Only one that is enabled is signalstrength. You can try a combination of them an see if it fixes your data issues.
Fixed (from alpha12): Sound, GPS, Mobile signal, Enable opengl (w/ software hack)
Removed DTApps2sd since it won't work without init.d support.
Gallery keeps force closing. Don't know why.
Settings keep crashing. Don't know why.
Alpha12 ics-passion-alpha12.tar.bz2 - 123.0 MB
EDIT: DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS. Looks like sound is broken too. Looks like alpha10 is the best bet sofar. Only downhill from there.
EDIT2: err looks like you can push audio.primary.qsd8k and audio_policy.qsd8k to get sound back. (untested)
EDIT3: I was wondering why system size was so much smaller lol.
DISABLE OPENGL: The HWA hack just sucks too much.
Use N1 stock bootanimation. It's cooler. (Oh, and I don't care what you think)
set config_hspa_data_distinguishable to true (Get an H instead of 3g)(I like it more)
Add some overlay items from crespo
Add some optimization cc flags
There were a couple ril changes to cm, maybe this will fix your data issues?
It seems Gallery will not work unless opengl is enabled (regardless of dalvik heap size)
Add htop, powertop, nano, vim, e2fsprogs (when using adb shell type bash to get them to work)
Remove Maps: So you can install the market version.
GPS is broke. It couldn't get it to build so just copied gps.mahmahi from previous build but that didnt work. I'll sort it out later. If you need gps dont upgrade.
Added Darktremor's Apps2sd modified for native bash support (in xbin). But it is not working. /sd-ext is not being mounted. It wont execute at runtime. The way it is set up. init.rc calls etc/init.local.rc calls bin/sysinit calls xbin/run-parts which calls etc/init.d/05mountsd now for somereason 05mountsd is not installed as executable even though it is executable in my out folder. changing 05mountsd to executable afterward still doesnt work. maybe someone can help me out here. my thought is init.d isn't setup properly. Also i would like to keep sysinit (or run-parts) being called from init.local.rc to keep init.rc and init.mahimahi.rc cleaner.
Alpha11 ics-passion-alpha11.tar.bz2 - 130.0 MB Alpha11 is provided out of courtesy and is not supported my me complains about it will be ignored.
system img is ~210MB
aosp apps updated to r1.2
Turn off lockscreen/touchscreen sounds
Decrease animaition by 50% (forgot to change back when added opengl)(increase till your hearts content)
Increase pointer speed to 100 (clicking still doesnt work but hey fast cursor lol)
Update to wpa_supplicant 8 (fixes wifi icon)
Enable OPENGL: Pulled HWA fixes from preludedrew's (evervolv) repo. (NOTE: not real HWA but better)(May exerience significant battery drain)
Update adreno blobs from inc evervolv repo
**W/HardwareRenderer( 1557): Mountain View, we've had a problem here. Switching back to software rendering.**
Add Pedlar's CMSettings (experimental WIP) (has 2 icons don't ***** about it)
Add bash,nano,vim,ncurses,ssh,rsync
Alpha10 Link
Added:
SHA256 crypto to kernel
fuse module to system (for future extended data on sdcard)
Camera app (camera still broke)
Stk
TitaniumBackup
LatinImeDictionary
GoogleCalendar (1st in appdrawer is AOSP if sync doesn't work for you just remove Calendar.apk and use CalendarGoogle.apk)
FileManager (from CM)
**Pedlar's notification power widget (still in WIP stage) Install this to allow configuration.
Resized bootanimation
Correct location/name of some permission files
Removed:
qralloc.qsd8k (slows down UI on not HWAccel builds)(Also removed in Alpha9)
Alpha9 Link
First taste of CM9
Kernel: Kanged pershoots with netstats ported by me from teamhacksung.
Thanks texasice, great work! Will test now. To clarify, is the partition layout mandatory? I have blackrose and can change it myself, but any rationale on this 220/16/200 layout in particular would be helpful.

Any system partition with 200MB or more will work [But the ramdisk is setup for the sys220/cache16/data200 it should still work with other layouts though]

So what is to become of the stock Rom?

this is exciting.
And my N1 lives again. This is awesome.
I sometimes do get frustrated by lack of processor and memory. but I just can't seem to upgrade from my N1. Maybe if I get ICS on my N1 I might not have to.

Thats the idea lol. If i could afford a new phone i would get a a galaxy nexus. But im poor so nexus one gets all my love
Even without hardware accel, alpha 9 feels pretty usable.
Thanks for your efforts - great work!
If do this...does it mean that changing Roms is not as simple as just going into recovery and flashing the ROM? Does it take more steps like changing the partition again?
Reserved Spot for later =D

Simply no. You have a couple options. 1 you can flash the cm7 i built and keep the my new repartitioned hboot. (This is where you need the recovery i provided to flash the cm gapps) 2. You can reflash the 'standard' blackrose hboot and put any rom you want on it. (Without installing my recovery)
Either way blackrose is mandatory. System img is ~192mb so it is too big for stock hboot. So the system partition needs to be grown.
Looks good!
But I will have to wait a little longer to dust off my N1 to try this, because I have a broken power button so I need trackball wake!

I assume you can make CM9 yourself.
Maybe you are the last person to try to use CM9 with blackrose.
Right?
I don't know why you hate blackrose
It's not possible. System apps MUST be on NAND. Period.
Sorry if im a bit rougth but you have to realize that google banned the ICS for N1 due the small system partition. They dont want to upgrade HBOOT because is so dangerous to do via OTA.

Now that I've ported the Kexecboot bootloader, I'm moving on to my ultimate goal of getting a GNU/Linux desktop distribution running on the Note. My distro of choice for ARM these days is Debian, because it works well both in a chroot on Android as well as natively booted on its own. With kexecboot, you can boot kernels off of the external SD card or even off of USB drives, so you can have Debian and Android installed simultaneously. I'm booting Debian off of my external SD, a 16GB Sandisk class 10.
TO-DO LIST:
* Creating rootfs [DONE] - Use debootstrap to create a minimal armhf rootfs of Debian testing
* Compile kernel [DONE] - Using the CM11 kernel as a base, compile a kernel with features necessary for Debian
* Booting [DONE] - Boot a kernel that loads the Debian root filesystem natively
* USB OTG [DONE] - Once booted, use USB keyboard and mouse to interact with the device
* WiFi Networking [DONE] - Automatically load the WiFi driver and connect to a wireless network at boot, enabling remote access
* Basic Video [DONE] - Load an X server to display graphical applications on the display
* 3D Acceleration [WIP] - Use the Freedreno driver to accelerate GLES and GL 3D applications
* Screen rotation [TODO] - Figure out if Freedreno can rotate the screen to landscape mode
* Video Acceleration [TODO] - Use the MSM video decoder to accelerate video playback
* Audio [WIP] - Write an ALSA UCM configuration file to map the correct mixer channels to get sound out of internal speaker and/or headphones
* Touch and Pen [WIP] - Pen input seems to work, but touchscreen isn't being detected by X
* Bluetooth [WIP] - I can initialize and scan, but was unable to pair and hold a connection. Useful for keyboard and mouse while charging/externally powering device.
* Mobile Radio [TODO] - Make use of the mobile connection for data, possibly calls if anyone wants to take a shot. I'm not going to work on this.
* Package for release [TODO] - Build a fresh rootfs free of my development changes, copy any necessary stuff, package, and upload.
I plan on developing this simultaneously for the Note i717, Note 3 (N900T), and HP TouchPad as I have all three of these and I should be able to get supported kernels working for all three as well. I'll post pictures as I go, right now I'm still mostly working from an SSH shell over WiFi.

EDIT: Got the same patch applied to the TouchPad and it too is running these programs as shown in the video. Unfortunately the backlight doesn't come on on the TouchPad so it's hard to see anything.
EDIT 2: Colors sorta fixed: http://i.imgur.com/1kmKDOw.jpg I fixed the main picture but the 3D rendered video is now messed up with red and blue swapped.

That sounds way to kool.
If I could get over my "terminal" fear I'd give you a hand, but as reading code I have no clue.
I couldn't even get linuxonandroid nor deploylinux to work and they both had a GUI.
That idea to use a REAL OS on the plablet is as great as using a REAL OS on a computer.
I do hope you succeed especially if the phone works also. LOL!
Thanks. :good:
