Google doesn't need people porting it directly to Phones, this will harm the sales of Honey tablets...That's why ICS will unite tabs and phones.
I understand they do not want it on phones, But there are some decent tablets out there suffering the lack of sourcecode.
Also I recently noticed a flat out lack of any roms for a certain device

Perhaps ICS will be available for tabs and will run on the ones that currently have no honey support. But once they release it, devs can port it to phones, and they only want it on tabs, specifically the dual core ones.
It is a shame, The original Galaxy Tab was a wonderful device, Altho as a large phone it looks ugly as sin, Running honeycomb however, It certainly looks nice between the transformer and new tab 10.1 and 8.9

Im on Sprint and im trying to decide what phone to get im debating wether to choose the HTC EVO 3D, Samsung Galaxy S II Epic 4g Touch, or the Nexus Prime (which is likely to come to sprint at some point). What phone do you guys think would be good for a person that likes a lot of custom roms and high preformance phones with a fast CPU, and GPU.
I have an Evo 3d and i have nothing but touch screen problems. I always have to cycle the screen on and off or pull the status bar down to get it to recognize any input. If i was you I would stay away from HTC devices, at least the EVO ones.

Well im currently using a HTC Hero which is still fully functioning with gingerbread, but im leaning towards choosing the Evo 3d because of the dev support here on XDA for it, its incredible how many roms are already available for it.
I'm a nexus s user... pure Google experience is just awesome! Speed, fast, sexy! You should wait for prime as it has dual core gpu and a super fast processor. The most important thing is it is very easy to root.

True Google experience is incredible im running it on my phone currently ,but i also enjoy switching between sense and aosp, i might just choose the nexus prime because of the updates it gets but im still not entirely sure on that, hmm i might have to wait till samung and google unveil the nexus prime.
Nexus Prime. Wait a few more days for the official announcement. You won't even have to think about it.
i think the nexus series is the easiest to root and flash custom roms
Anyone know how many Arias were sold and any estimates for how many may still be in use? Just wandering about what the market is for continuing the rom upgrade work for this phone.

I still use it as my main phone. I flashed munjenis cm9 ROM which is working great for me. I just bought it two months before the Desire C came out, so I want to keep using it for at least one year. Maybe then something better comes up, who knows?
Sent from my Liberty using xda premium
I got it in the beginning of the year, so just like dansou901 I wanna keep it for a while. I love this phone and I hope it gets support for a little longer.
This is an awesome phone for my first Android!
You're right, it's awesome, but it is only Arm v6, so it won't be compatible to newer software...
Sent from my Liberty using xda premium
I just like the small size and it's elegant design. I am also impressed with how the rom developers have been able to keep it current with ICS and now JB. And particularly how other developers have overcome the memory limitations with programs like S2E. Just what is the appeal of a 5" screen?
Sent from my Aria using xda app-developers app
I still have 2 Aria's, one with CM7 and the other with CM9. I love what I think is the prefect size of these phones. It's too bad HTC hasn't built another similar sized phone with more memory and processor power.
I wonder it can work on the OG because I would love to try this.

Go and get yourself a Nexus 7, it's one of Canonical's targeted development devices.
I use my phone for making calls and other mundane but critical daily functions, so I am leery about experimenting with my phone; however, it's a different story with my n7 tablet. I can flash any available ROM and do unspeakable things to it and I am able to maintain my level of service for daily living.

There are two separate products.
http://www.xda-developers.com/andro...buntu-for-phones-coming-soon-to-galaxy-nexus/
Ubuntu for Android which was announced about a year ago or so.
Ubuntu for Smartphones was announced yesterday and is a different product.
U4A = a dual boot type environment. when you are walking around it's an Android phone...when docked it's a full fledged Linux OS.
U4S = a full fledged Linux OS...no android at all.
i would love to see this in action. i expect the Carriers to be a big hurdle. AT&T and Verizon will not want to give up control over the handhelds on their network. but just like the ISP has no control over your device's in your home, i hope the consumers can eventually push hard enough that the Carriers go the same route. but to date AT&T still makes the manufacturers lock down their devices and if they could they would revert back to the days when rooting your phone was illegal.

So I just randomly came across this on flipboard, I found the UI to be intriguing!!
Part of me isn't sure if the DNA would be able to run the software very well, at least not without a lot of work, and I have no coding experience. I, however, think it would be awesome to run this on the DNA. If there are any Devs out there that would be able to get ahold of the software and would be able to attempt cooking this for the DNA I would be very happy and excited to run this UI.
Here is a video of the UI:

Yeah, it is definitely Windows-espue on the middle screen, but more advanced (I can see how some might find it slightly cluttered, I like it though). The right screen seems very much like the Android UI, just flipped at 90° (vertical page scrolling vs. horizontal). I would be fine without the left sceen; I guess it would make finding certain things a little easier though.
I just wish/hope some of the awesome devs in the DNA community would be able to get ahold of this and make some magic!

Posted from my Verizon Employee Edition DROID DNA #01749.
I find the warping animations a bit ugly, and have never been a fan of HTC's UI design in general. I would definitely prefer Windows Phone.
its not exactly HTC its more like a custom rom for a custom device....its KDDI Japan's custom UI (heavily modified sense rom), running on their device

Sent from my ADR6300 using xda app-developers app
It may happen someday, it's probably not a high priority issue with the devs working on the AOSP based roms though, stick to Sense if you need MHL... It looks like it's working on some Sense 4 based roms now...

I dont think we will ever see MHL work in a AOSP rom, not so much a CM10 thing as its a AOSP thing. I want to say that it has to do something HTC code and not a google code. I could be wrong, but for as long as AOSP has been on this phone, i dont beleive MHL has ever been support on it
---------- Post added at 04:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:27 PM ----------
Actually just jumped over to the dev part, and it appears the MHL is a sense only thing meaning that it does have to do with some sort of HTC that is most likey closed source. So it will probably never happen
thanks I am just trying to figure out if I want the droid razr or this phone and the razr has hdmi and that is part if the phone lol also it runs android 4.1 out of the box now and I am just thinking if it will be supported longer with the devs because of that.

the rez is an older phone so i would imagine that support for it will start to drop in the near feature as HTC moves away from it, there will be less and less support because we are currently getting bits and pieces from other HTC phones to get JB to work as the rez will prob never see it. So as the 8660 platform goes away, we will be seeing less and less stuff happening for this phone...its sad, but its what happens
so would the razr be more supported?
Sent from my ADR6300 using xda app-developers app
Well the org RAZR was released around the same time so its prolly going to be in the same situation at some point. It depends what your doing with it. You will have more options with an HTC phone then a moto because moto is notorious for locking the boot loader so devs tend not to work with them. Not that there isn't custom ROMs just not as much. Personally if it was me I would say the rez. I have one and love it and support isn't going to drop tomorrow for it. Its still a good phone with decent hardware. The problem we will run into is new OS support. Like we might not see klp on the rez. It might stop at jb but that yet to be seen. Both phones are very good I know ppl that have the RAZR and love it. The few features you don't get with cm based ROMs with the rez def should not stop you from considering it. The dev for this phone is still strong and still has a huge support following

its a sense only thing because its not just an HDMI port. HTC has the code for the MHL and they aren't sharing.
i think its a money thing. if we had source we could make every phone have MHL
What about the Samsung phones having mhl? Could u use that ?

different drivers and lib files. when it comes to proprietary systems, companies like to keep the source under lock and key. although HTC does have source for sense. but it's above my paygrade to work with it.

The rezound is not bad just pick the razr has hdmi and it has official jellybean so it should.be supported longer that'd be the main thing. Also it is a little cheaper by $30 also it seams in the reviews that the razr is a little faster also benchmarking in is faster by a little. Also it seams that it is a little beater on viewing angle s. But idk I have to get the money from selling things on eBay and that did not happen they never paid ug. Let me know what u think thanks

The screen may be wider, but if you compare them side by side, I believe you will choose the rezound. 720p and much higher PPI. You can watch movies on this phone comfortably and they look great. But for battery, the razr wins, unless you get an extended, but it will make the rezound 2x thick. Still, the screen is something to behold...
Well I think the rezound Is good just some of the things the razr has out weighs the rezound. Thank you to all for you help!
