Has it released the source code for 2.2 yet ?
If not, could you please direct me to where i should be monitoring.
I think i was looking at the right place because it had open source Tar.s and tgiz for t959D but not t959.
No, they have not:

It will say Froyo when they do, like the canadian Fascinate does.
Since they released 2.2 in US for the Vibrant, they have to release source as per GPL?

I was thinking the same, but it seems they can stretch it out 6 months before they truly have to release it.
Thanks for the replies guys !!
This thread maybe deleted/locked.
Just curious as to which dev you think will put out the first stable rom based on t959 source? Not that first or fast is best, but i am sure they are all runnin on hyper-speed. My guess is dfa. I am a fan of all the big 3, but Masters updates are on point. Obviously Eugene killed the kernel race(nice job).
Blue 32 in the 4th.
My guess is Whitehawxx and or untermensch will have a deodex version out today
Then Einherjar/trigger/TW and Master team will get something out who know between those 3
I think they are all more surprised how much the leaks were right......
Isn't trigger part of the enjijar team?
And trigger is by bricked?
What the hell? it's kernel source, not Rom source....

No it's the entire FroYo source.
The ROMs here are fine, the kernels are the ones we needed the source for as they used to be based on the i9000 JPX FroYo source which hogged battery.
Our source is based on KA6 FroYo which should equal to better life!

NO, no it's not. It's KERNEL SOURCE. the only rom source we have is from google.
It's source for a froyo kernel build KA6. Nothing more.
Can a experienced user please respond and tell us if its kernel source or froyo source???
i know what i'm talking about. it's kernel source. nothing more.
If it was rom source, then the GT-i9000 would have had rom source for a while. they've only had kernel source. And that's what we have now. kernel source.
If you don't believe me, then download the source and try to compile it yourself. you'll only end up with a kernel.
the only rom source we have is the AOSP source from google.
Time to set everyone straight.
It's Just KERNEL SOURCE!
The Platform dir within the source has NOTHING to do with a ROM, hell, doesn't even have anything to do with the kernel either.
Yes kernel code, but an intergeated kernel in one of these roms first was my poll question, not a flashable kernel. Thats all. Sorry to confuse.

It's already done
You guys really crack me up.lol Not everyone even if they read tutorials, actually understand some of the foreign (Technical/Terms) language that some of you guys speak. Some of you have unbelievable arrogance to assume that everyone speaks geek. I do understand most of what I have read here and have been able to make my Vibrant really preform much better than stock. But not all are able to. Some in fact do need to be hand held a little. But if that is not your thing then ignore them when they ask for help. But to belittle demean and flat out act an ass on a public forum is ghetto fabulous. I'm in healthcare and I know that even when I am trying to speak in simplistic terms that I still talk over most patient's heads. It's up to me to try to help them understand the best way I know how. So why don't some of you get your asses off of your shoulders and stop trippin'

yay???!!! is this what weve been waiting 4??
I can't view the page from where I'm at but thats seems to be a link about the source code for the original Galaxy S phone (the euro gsm version) and the source code from that isn't our source code (although I think in the past some of the drivers from the orig galaxy S have been used in some of kaos/jt's builds?).
I’m not sure what has gotten into the folks at Samsung as of late, but they seem to be on top of their game. They dropped the source code for the DROID Charge and Fascinate last week, the Gingerbread update for the Galaxy S started rolling out for European users this weekend, and this morning, the source code for the aforementioned 2.3 update hit the Open Source Developers Center. Ergo, we can almost certainly expect to see some custom Gingerbread ROMs for the Galaxy S in the coming weeks.

maybe its the 2.2 code??? the ec10 and drippler just sux at ameking snese
Galaxy S != Fascinate
The source is for the i9000, not the SCH-I500
Its been said COUNTLESS times, the original i9000 isn't going to help with mostly everything on the Fascinate (i500).

I am considering buying the SGS2 very soon. I am going to root it but here is my question. If I wait to get pushed the ATT update to 4.0 ICS do I have to flash back to stock just to root it? I want to wait for the stock push of 4.0 and just wipe off the bloatware and not have to worry about custom ROMs etc. Thanks for the help.
Currently running captivate with cognition 4.5.3 froyo.

You should be able to root after the update. But we don't know yet for sure.
Way too early to tell. You aren't going to see an official AT&T ICS OTA update for many months - if the Captivate is any indicator, not for at least a year.
Just wait for a Rom to be made , im sure one will be as soon as the sources are avail... I stopped doing the Ota upgrades when i realized its easier to just change the Rom.... So root... imo

I'm hoping ATT/Samsung push it sooner because it's still one of ATT's highest end phones.
Of course, this is just wishful thinking.

Reading this thread, suddenly triggering me asking this question, I don't know why I haven't asked before: is there any ongoing development for ICS ROM?
I assume most of the custom ROMs surface in here are Gingerbread based OS.

No source for ics yet so there is no development. Look in general forum there is a sticky talking about it. There is also Cm9 but it's not fully working yet on our device.

Google did release ICS source codes about a month ago, I'm sure you know that.
Alright, so only CM dev. team currently working on this then.
Thanks

That's base platform source for Nexus devices with not a single bit of source for anything specific to the I9100 or I777.
You really need to educate yourself on what source has and has not been released, and what that source means and is used for, before posting crap like this.
Basically, I could spend a few hundred hours trying to port the 2.6.35.x drivers for Samsung-specific items to a vanilla Linux 3.0 kernel - only to have a halfassed buggy release ready after Samsung releases official ICS with kernel source for the I9100, which can be ported to the I777 in a matter of a few hours of work.
The CM dev team is not working on ICS for the I777 either - to get anything even working on the I9100 they had to resort to something they almost NEVER do, which is an initramfs repack of a binary kernel. Getting an I9100 binary kernel to work properly on an I777 is simply not possible - you can repack the initramfs all you want, the audio routing code will be different and so will the touchkey mapping code.
The only ICS development that will occur on the I777 prior to I9100 kernel source getting released (or an I777-specific leak showing up) is some basic reverse engineering efforts (mainly focused in audio routing), since the library swap Hellraiser uses can't be done with ICS (depends on audio blobs extracted from an I777 device.)

By reading my English, do you understand that I just said Google has released ICS source codes? Did you see I am saying Google has released ICS source codes for I9100 or this specific i777, huh? Did you read and understand or just premature assumption?
Or you are telling me that you never know Google has release ICS source code?

Are you the one who create Entropy512 DD kernel? If yes, every minute you spent is well appreciated, left alone a few hundred of hours.
If so, yes, you seem to be very smart in Android field but in life, learn to grow up and act nicely, politely to others. Get some love, kiddo.

Again, I don't know who is working on what so I asked. One of the poster mentioned about CM, so I just repeat it.
If they currently do it, great.
If they currently do not do it, it's ok.
I am just asking, 'cuz in B&N NOOKcolor forum, a lot of XDA dev. is WORKING on ICS ROM from ICS source code that released a while a go.
I thought XDA dev. in this room will also do the same.

Another poster said we were waiting for source.
You replied to him saying Google posted source over a month ago. Thus implying that you thought that Nexus platform source would actually be sufficient on its own to get our device running ICS - it isn't, it's nowhere close.
I'm sick and tired of repeated "WHERE'S ICS? GOOGLE POSTED SOURCE OVER A MONTH AGO!" posts.

"Another poster" I assume you meant "eep2378, one that posted right above my "crappy post"?
Firstly, if eep not getting itchy, why you?
Secondly, I don't know what he meant about ICS for Nexus, and even if he meant that, he didn't spell out so I thought he meant the general ICS source code. In his next sentence, he actually mentioned about CM team working on it, even not fully function, w/o waiting for this specific phone ICS source code, so I thought he meant they, CM team are using the general source code, just like XDA dev. in B&N NOOKcolor room.
Thirdly, and if eep irritated about my post, I apologize him.
Now back to you, let's square and clear up all confuse, hardness.
You're a talented kid, good, keep it up. If you know something, teach us, I'm sure a lot of others will learn from you and quietly appreciate.
Be socialize with people around you, in real life or in cyber.
To the ICS related questions, if you don't want to answer, DO NOT answer, there's no one forces you to do so. There is no point to irritate about it.

Ok let me try to clear up some confusion:
1) Nexus source code has nothing to do with I9100 or I777
2) I didn't mention anything about ICS for Nexus because(see #1) and this is the I777 forum NOT Nexus(another reason why I didn't mention it)
3)I mentioned CM9 because(RIGHT NOW) its the only thing that even approaches getting ICS on I9100 forget the I777. And Even Codeworkx(OP for CM9 aka Dev) is WAITING for ICS SOURCE to drop FOR THE I9100.
Only then, as Entropy said, are we able to get it working on the I777
4)I'm not "itchy" or irritated in the least and there is no need for an apology. Having said that I am fairly tired of reading posts about ICS source code being dropped/when are we getting ICS?/ Can ICS run on my I777?, etc.
Finally, ICS source code dropped FOR THE GALAXY NEXUS!! What does that mean for us?? SEE #1!!
@Entropy, I responded to you in another thread(in Q&A) Porting Bezke ICS KP8(yeah I know another one lol) regarding comments you made on Captivate and I9000 kernels being similar but I9100 and I777 not sharing the same similarities.
I'm sure you never went back to that thread, but didn't want bother you via pm

For the I777? Where?
I don't want to sound ignorant, but Samsung always releases the kernel source along with the ROM?
I apologize for my noobish question, but how are the ASOP builds starting to roll out w/o source being released?? I understand you can compile aosp builds on your own, but doesnt the source code provide all the tweaks you need to optimize it on a device to device basis?
There's no ICS source for the Captivate either, but we are officially supported on CM9. Very glad!
Sent from my Captivate using Tapatalk!
if there is good source from another device that is near this one then porting could be possible.
The short answer is a combination of two things based on what I can tell.
They are actually using the existing kernel for the leaked ICS roms and beginning to dissect them. As far as I know, the current AOKP roms being used are using either an unmodified original kernel from ULD3 or 'very slightly' modified/patched kernel from ULD3 with a few tweaks for overclocking support and whatnot.
As far as what is happening with the Captivate, I believe they are taking heavy sections from the Gingerbread source code and splicing it in to their ICS kernel and changing what they need to for ICS compatibility.
Also, similar devices that have ICS source code floating around can also be spliced up.
I am only speculating here since I am not involved in the projects, if someone knows more than I, feel free to speak up.
