Hi all, what we can do to participate?
What kind of support needs to our beloved developers to port this release to the folio 100?
Maybe is better to wait toshiba to release the new folio 200 and steal the firmware? Or can be enough to rework the xoom version?

I think this question has been asked and answered many times already... It's extremely difficult due to lack of drivers. So yeah, best thing to do now is to wait for folio 200 to come out with honeycomb, then I guess it'd be easier for Dexter to do all the porting jobs... Xoom using different hardware components from our folio 100
Thread closed for the reasons explained above.
So are they going to give us ICS after the release of the prime ? our hardware surely has to be compatible ! How does this work ! Is this going to be just for future phones ?

1-ice cream sandwich is going to be announced next week correct !
2-isn't it the next android Operating system for phones up from honeycomb
Yes or No !
WiKi Android OS
2.3 Gingerbread
3.0 Honeycomb
3.1 Honeycomb
3.2 Honeycomb
Future releases
(ICS) is short for > 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich
4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich is said to be a combination of Gingerbread and Honeycomb into a "cohesive whole".[51] In September 2011, Eric Schmidt stated that Ice Cream Sandwich "is being released in October/November."[61] Ice Cream Sandwich will be publicly unveiled on October 19 in Hong Kong.[62]
[edit]
So what's the problem answering the question ?
why the hell are you yelling?
Yes, ICS is going to be announced next week
Yes, it is the next android version for phones and tablets. honeycomb was only for tablets.
how the hell would we know for sure if we are going to see ICS released from samsung for our phones? you seem to want a definite answer, yet we cant give that to you because im guessing most of us dont work for samsung.
a good guess would be that, yes we will see a touchwiz version of ICS made available for our phones, but not for months from now. we most definitely will not see a version as soon as its released on the nexus devices.

Yeah, it was a joke. My whole point was it's funny how people worry about an OS release that they don't even know anything about, yet they let it influence their buying decision.

google makes new version of android
google releases new version of android (only available on nexus devices at first)
manufacturers begin working on their tainted/bloated/overly UI'd versions of the new google android build
eventually, at close to the time of the next new shiny build of the next android version, we see the manufacturers, (more importantly the carriers) start pushing out the version that is now 3-6 months old, and we see complaints up until the point the next shiny version is put out about how all the manufacturers/carriers are stupid and dont support their devices....
rinse, repeat

If you don't know what the benefit of an OS is, why would it matter if you have it or not? You're acting as blindly as the sheep who bought the new iPhone 4S just because it was marketed as an upgrade.
At least be informed if you're going to ask stupid questions. Nobody minds answering questions from people who google the question first.
The new OS is expected to be unveiled on October 19 and fans all over the world can watch the event live on Google’s YouTube channel, starting 10 AM HK time. Along with the OS, the world is expecting Google and Samsung to release the Nexus Prime / Galaxy Nexus smartphone at the event as well. The Galaxy Nexus has been highly anticipated since it will be the first smartphone to showcase the ICS OS.
So 10:00 PM Tonight it'll be broadcast
So the Nokia N9 is a beautiful peace of kit and Meego looks nice, but how much better would some ice cream sandwich be on that thing?
How hackable will the N9 be? I guess the main thing is, will anyone have one? Seeing as its not being released in a lot of places I can see it being hard to get a hold of...
I think that the nokia n9 is a nice phone and I do not understand why nokia do not use Android for its smartphone

It's simple, because Nokia has chosen Windows Phone as it main mobile OS.
As to why Nokia pick Windows over Android, it's simple too. Microsoft needs a great hardware partner to win, and Nokia needs a decent OS to survive. They need each other, and this situation gave Nokia lot of say and control in their hardware and future Windows Phone development. While Android is great, Android doesn't need Nokia and Nokia wouldn't stand a chance in the already super crowded Android ecosystem.
But anyway, the N9/Lumia800 is definitely the most beautiful smartphone I have seen in the last few years. The button-less N9 makes an ideal candidate for ICS. However, it's too expensive at the moment...

I already own what for me is the most beautiful Android phone - Xperia Arc. Just bought N9 yesterday as I couldn't resist not owning such a beautiful loooooking device that is also getting rave reviews.
N9 is just not a good looking device, it feels so f'in right in the hand. The screen, the feel all feel perfectly balanced. It makes my Arc look like a POS. While I love MeeGo so far, I still have lot of learning but frankly, Android messed me up so much that I feel it's hard to survive with other mobile OS if you know to use Android well.
I hope some genius out there can get ICS running on this beauty. Or, I hope Samsung shamelessly copies Nokia design as they are famous copy-cats!
yeah, when i saw buttonless n9 i immediately think about ics, they are perfect for each orthers, i used to be nokia fan, hope sone dev can make isc run on n9
Nokia e7 is my dream machine. With android of course. Or w7 so It can get eventually get android
Sent from my Defy. Using XDA App.
I would be down for a Nokia N9 if there was a crew like CM that would try to port android on to it. By realistically I don't think that will happen, phone's not available in the US, CAN, or UK. And getting it off ebay is roughly $650, but I just might get it, sigh...
After reading up on the N9 I couldn't resist and got one. I had the Sony Arc as well and I been with Nokia until they messed up with the n97. But the N9 is another monster, really sleek design the OS is beautiful and colors on the screen really jumps. The black color looks really vivid and nice. I am now waiting for someone to hack android or can port android apps to the N9.
I would buy an n9 if someone ported ICS... just too nice a piece of kit to not own
Def a pretty phone. Android should really be present.
i will get n9, if someone port ics on it.
i'm working in high tech store in Italy and officially the N9 is not sold there, but we got one in the shop and is amazing; i really fell in love with that phone (you can never forget your first love )
i do want to buy it for myself, but what it bothers me is the lack of possible applications to install on the phone. an android porting on that device will be amazing.
is there a crazy guy that has tried an android porting on that device before?
also the original meego software looks pretty well and hands on runs smoothly and seems not having trouble at all, but i had only a quick 5 minutes test on the phone. what worries me is that the phone will left alone with no further support because it's the only one with meego software.
already done look at this video with meego operating 5 different OS search nokia on google and u will the link
Yeah I had SGS2 and got an N9 instead, mainly BECAUSE of the OS.
Android is slow on appswitching (at least the versions Ive run, where youd have to either exit the app, open task manager, then select from a list of icons, or you could hold the menubutton for a bit, then select an app from a list of icons).
ICS might be different, I have no idea how taskswitching is done on it.
However, I will say that the N9 rocks ass and it would be fun to dualboot ICS/Harmattan.
Also, to the above poster, its not allready done. A chinese fake version of the N9 with a 3.8" resistive touchscreen, dualsim and 1.3mp camera can, though. Also it comes with porn and talking tomcat. So theres that.
Just had to throw my hat into the ring. I am ridiculously tempted to purchase the N9. Damn thing is just too attractive.
I was really hoping for some community love but that may just be due to my HD2. Leo users have been Spoilt Rotten.
I see even a hint of android development and caution is out the window. Take my money.
Man I hope they boot leg the E7!

In the mean time i got an N9 for christmas, and the MeeGo OS built in is working pretty good, ha some features that i really love, like completely unified address book and unified messaging system, which slows me to modify the device.
On the other side, the are really few apps developed for meego os, that really pushes me to switch to another OS...
Mmm hard choice...
Awerellwv I bring your attention to Alien Dalvik(google it I cant post links)
Running android apps at native speed seems to negate the lack of apps issue. Assuming it all works as planned.
I've convinced myself I want an N9. Possibly just because that Cyan model looks fantastic. I would really love to see ongoing android development though, Knowing the device would keep up with the times is a big deal.
Now to just find the right price. If you really want to switch phones(and you have a cyan N9) I would be interested.

i have the cyan one in the shop, but i bought for myself the black one, which looks every day better and better. Have to admit, tough, that the cyan one looks gorgeus, i will suggest bo buy it if you don't plan to use covers for the phone.
White 64GB N9
I have had since a few days the latest white 64GB version of the N9 and I must say, it's quite an incredible device!
I can't even imagine why Nokia went the WP7 way (beside some fresh cash certainly paid by M$).
Of course, there are still some functions & details missing and some things to iron out with Meego (like with WP7), but it's a very stable and fast OS (I'm impressed how fast Opera is loading!). I must add that it's still loaded with the 10.2011.34 Harmattan version, the latest 20.2011.40 hasn't yet been released for this specific model.
I just love the 3 screens idea, especially the "running tasks" screen, where you have access to all of the running apps and can either switch to the wanted one or close it/them. Why is it so complicated for other OS's to implement such a simple and easily accessible task manager??
The only downside I can see is the lack of applications. Only the true Linux developers will continue porting apps to this wonderful smartphone, and if we could get android applications to run on it, it would be great. And when I say run on it, it's preferably run on Meego, using Alien Dalvik or whatever other way.
If this is not possible, of course dual booting or ICS alone would be a solution, although I like the fact we're running an almost pure Linux/Debian machine, with an interesting touchscreen interface.
Hopefully Nokia will keep reading all of the N9 dedicated forums and will keep a Meego (or whatever it will be named in the future) branch of handsets, and of course supporting it/us.
Anyone want to guess as to when/if we'll get this update?
Never.
Edit: In before the lock...
I opened one of these threads the day it was announced, it was closed. I'm sure the mods will close this one as well.
guessing like ... how Asus tf700 will be released around the end of year to find out mid next month
If the first Transformer got ICS, I sure would hope the Transformer Prime gets Jelly Bean.
The update for the Nexus S, Galaxy Nexus and the Xoom is coming mid-July. I assume that Asus already as a copy of Jelly Bean since it build the Nexus 7. They should be already working on it for the Tf700, Tf300 and the Tf201. I assume sometime in late July or August.
Soon (optimistic guess)

That's what I was thinking. Excluding the keyboard, our device is identical to the Nexus 7 plus one addition camera and a microSD card slot. It shouldn't be too hard. Plus, with Google supervising the firmware, maybe they worked out all those weird driver glitches from Nvidia.
Give me some sweet Jelly Bean 4.1 to beta test please.
Jelly Bean is available if you can build a rom http://developer.android.com/index.html
Edit: I assumed that http://source.android.com/index.html would have been updated to reflect the new developer site
It'll probably take few month before Prime receives Jellybean.
Remember, we still have another "update" that's being tested by beta testers and that's not even Android 4.04 I believe (I could be wrong). Although, the good news ... or think is good news is that.. Gary expected different "beta" testing update but didn't get it... thus, Asus is possibly switching their resource into Jellybean update for current products. But yea... just because Xoom is receiving Jellybean in mid-July doesn't mean Asus products will.....
As for Jellybean open source, it won't be released til mid-July.
Speaking of which.. it is interesting to note that Jellybean is still on Linux kernel 2.6.29 instead of Linux 3+.... disappointing.
jellybean dual booted with Ubuntu working 100% would be A.W.E.S.O.M.E.

Is it really? I thought for sure it'd be on 3.0. Isn't the Galaxy Nexus using 3?
Yup, Jellybean SDK is on Linux kernel 2.6.29
We will probably get it around or when the Infinity 700 gets it.. don't expect it before that releases stateside at least I'm not

Yes my LTE is on 3.0.8 on stock IMM76K... most tabs are still on 2.6 though
If i'm correct, Jelly Bean will first be exclusive to Nexus 7 for a certain period before they can release it to their tablet. Like before (Gingerbread and Ice Cream Sandwich).
I hope the 'buttery smooth' project has actually really fixed the lags at random point.
I would rather see Asus release a stable and properly functioning version of ICS, instead of another half-assed attempt at a new version of the OS. I don't need the newest version number, I need a functional tablet.
Unless they give us 4.0.4 really soon, which I doubt since none of the beta testers have said there was a change, expect the same 4.0.3 IML74K build with just tweaks ("fixes") until they decide to push 4.1 to us.

so agreed with this.
right now, im so enjoying androwooks 2.0 rom
It may be simpler for Asus to work from a better base i.e. Jelly Bean, to deliver that outcome. Lets hope that given the Nexus 7 runs a Tegra 3 processor Transformer Prime owners won't be too far behind!!
Hi all,
Google unveils gradually Jelly Bean. Apparently, that is an update Ice Cream Sandwich and not a new system in its own right (Am I wrong?).
The SDK is available.
So little questions to our dear developers CyanogenMod :
Is it planned for Folio?
Are you already over?
If so, we allowed was a small picture?
PS: This reminds me a story, there is now a little over 7 months :good:
PS 2: If that is not the case, no regret, your work is already great about ICS.
Just kidding for the photo.
The SDK is for today and I know that if you can and your time permits, you will do, I 've no doubt about it.
My question is above all the possibility of porting the new version?
Of course, I don 't hesitate to give you a few beers for your efforts.
You gotta wait until Google publishes the source code (July?), then the Cyanogen Team must start working over it and finally hope that DerArtem/nopy or another good guy tries to get it working on our Folio 100.
Gotta take some time, by the way.
For July, I think that's the update for Galaxy Nexus, Nexus S and Xoom which should emerge.
What is reassuring, that is an update, so may be less work for our devs (i think )
I am a little surprised at these few changes (important for some), but it shows that Google wants to improve its Android 4.

I have tested a lot of applications and the keyboard is problematic (for the vocals it's good but not for the keyboard), but the new 3.7.11 Play Store is Ok with more choices in applications, I' ve the impression.

Well, this should not be so terrible for our devs this Jelly Bean, I have seen so many red lines of green on GitHub. :laugh::laugh::laugh:
No kidding, that is feasible?
Some devices seem coded and I even saw an other kernel : 2.6.36?
In any case, good luck to you.
This is good news!

Hello,
As I see, there is a possibility of Jeally Bean on our Folio 100 and I suspect that no future updates on ICS won't be. If CM developing JB that means it should be even better than ICS, but its not(My opinion) because if ICS is having those problems that are described in Fix List then JB will have even more. And I think that JB will be little better then ICS, but will see.
