[APPEAL] Raise your voice to get a fully working ICS - Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini

We are lucky enough to have a wonderful dev who provides us with ALMOST perfect ICS ROM:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1365683
What holds us back from having it REALLY perfect is a lack of arm6 drivers.
That´s why people already have raised their voices in these threads:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1551784
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1553673
In the meantine, there appeared this initiative, which seems to be growing
VERY FAST.
Would you be the next one to support it?

More info about it:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=24016074&postcount=43
Spread the word any way you can think of!
... and please don´t spam the groubal!

done

I added my comments in that DevForum

" This request has been brought to the attention of the appropriate people. As with the previous request, I can't say if or when this might actually happen. Thanks! "
come on, something is moving!

Done! Let's keep it going!

done i hope that something will happen

done , let's push it

Signed the groubal but it won't let me post on the qualcomm dev page, it only lets me register

yes.going to do it

right away done

OK, we`re moving quite fast.
But more interestingly, we got response!

It`s only a word from a guy who monitors forums, he only asked us for patience, because the decision-making will take place somewhere else. You see, IF they decide to release it, they won`t pull it out of the pocket, somebody who is paid for his work would have to work on it, their devs are not hobbiests like here on xda.
So IF they decide positively, it will take some time. In case of arm7 it was like 3 months. Whish I was wrong.

is their any positive reply from qualcomm side ???

This release contains the user-mode driver binaries for Qualcomm's Adreno 2xx GPU on Google Android Ice Cream Sandwich for ARMv6 based chipsets. It has been tested with the CAF release M8960AAAAANLYA1030. Supports any Adreno 2xx GPU on Android ICS using the ARMv6 chipset (7x27). Google's libRS (LLVM) does not currently support ARMv6.

Anyway, what does "Google's libRS (LLVM) does not currently support ARMv6" means ? How much will it affect developing ? Sorry, not a dev,but just interested in it..

Do sony still care about this old device?? I hv leave my phone in drawer fot ages.....

My God the amount of changes that Google made to Android 4.0.
If you guys have not had the chance to see what has been going on, check it out http://www.engadget.com/2011/10/18/android-4-0-ice-cream-sandwich-now-official/ .
The total rehaul has a lot of to be excited about including the fact that the sdk is out and as I understand it, this will be released with it's source code for some sweet dev love.
GLEE!
We don't even have a working gingerbread , much less honeycomb and you are looking for ICS.

Actually, there are plenty of working GB and HC roms. What made you think otherwise?
My understanding is that if the developers had the source code necessary for hardware acceleration, we would eventually have a fully working ICS rom. I think Viewsonic doesn't care enough to have someone work with nvidia to get the source code.
Once google releases ICS source code, we should have a usable ICS rom, at least

Yes, please move this to the proper forum, I think its called "posts from people with rocks in their heads".
hahaha sorry, I could not resist.
I'd be careful not to get too excited...this is very dependent on the few developers we still have, wanting to stick around even longer to try to get this to work. They might decide to move onto a different tablet also...

[Q] Bootdroid dual boot ios5 and droid for galaxy s2

Just want to know if anyone else knows about this new app that is in dev at the moment.
It is a way of having a dual boot with ios5 and android
Links -
http://code.google.com/p/bootdroid/
and
http://bootdroid.blogspot.com/
As said in the other thread, Im not sure whether its a fake rip off or a real one. Apple hasn't and wouldn't give source codes for their crap.
And erm, ios would just dirty my phone
Yes, im a fanboy
I am slightly convinced that if might be real, although as said on the blog he has run into some legal problems but thinks he might have found a way around this, I am a Droid fan but this is a show off feature that would be pretty cool.

Yea, me too. It might be real too for all it matters
Wow it would be really nice to have ios running on my SII. i love android, but showing the fanboys that our device can do both. It's priceless. keep up the good work
im interested in this project mostly because would be nice to test performance on the s2 but then you would run into issues like their retina display, apple would never allow it since there platform is copyright, but luckily this guy is named Anonymous
heres a pic from his blog
http://i44.tinypic.com/24n0eph.jpghttp://i44.tinypic.com/24n0eph.jpg
It would be intresting to see how this would work and i think the galaxy s2 is the perfect phone to test on, but i cant see how he going to get over the legal issues.

If he could create a script or program that could take an IPSW (Firmware file) and make it "android ready" for lack of a better term, he would be completely safe. As the user would be downloading the IPSW and supplying it not him. Also the IPSW are available freely on Apple's site so they couldn't come after the users at that point at all. He just has to find a way to do that (not going to be easy).
Also iOS source is available on apple's dev site for anyone to look at it. It's just mostly copywrited (besides the BSD portions). I'm not sure if all of it's there but I have looked at some of it in the past for hints to exploits for jailbreaking.

I have some development background, and from my knowledge of iOS and ARM Devices this would be quite a task if this is what he is doing.
I really want to believe this is real but I just found a link from github by someone called Peter42 who freshly uploaded a "BootDroid" code.
Last update to his blog dated 24 March is the same date the files were uploaded.
I have a Motorola Xoom and believe I can't test them.
Could anyone (for God's sake!) confirm whether they were real or not?
If possible, I already downloaded the files and would upload them for you in case original was removed.
this should be awesome, running ios in the powerfull SII... just for shutup the izombies xP
Even better, the upcoming Galaxy SIII!
But for real, can anyone try that?
I just ran the installation process on my Motorola Xoom and didn't notice any difference like a new app nor by or through restarting.
I'm kinda hyped up on this and would love to brag about how Android is superior to iOS if it was true
I heard about this and i think the guy plans to do it by vnc so just displaying the iPhone screen over internet

I don't really know if this was the link to the program or not though it's called the same.
But as I said before, these files were uploaded the day he last updated his post.
You can download it from there.
I don't really know how this should work since it doesn't even have iOS firmware files but I figured someone with a supported device could try and see for himself.
Nothing appeared on my Xoom at all which is not supported!
And, you can uninstall it from the same installation wizard.
Hi everybody !
Sorry for my english, I'm french.
I am really interested on this application, so I wonder if somebody has already succed in make it working ?
I' ve downloaded the Zip package on the website shared on the link below, but I don't understand how to instal it...
I think that even if it's possible to run iOs and Adroid on a Iphone, it woould be difficult to do the same on a androphone beacause iOs in not an open source system ...
Can somebody help me please ?
Thanks to you guys

True Dat!! but they will still need a base to work on , where will they get that? i mean they can't make a full ROM without a base from sony or cm
Still i will hope they figure out something and present us with something unexpectable and remarkable

I don't really get why people keep saying that ICS on Neo/V is a complete failure, I mean, so far I haven't had a single problem with it (I've used stock/CM9/AOKP and currently using JJDoctor's Hybrid which is based on stock).
No offense but I think most people don't even try to make their phone better in any way, just wanting a one click "give me everything and then some" solution, which of course won't really help much, if at all.
I currently run my Neo underclocked (268 - 800 Mhz) and everything is silky smooth, but I think the most vital change that people should do is lose the Sony crap (launcher, music, sms app), I've been using Sony phones since 2010 (X10 Mini > X10 > Neo and a friend's Play) and so far I haven't had a single complaint, mind you my phone is also used by my girlfriend, parents, brother, etc. I also used a Galaxy Ace for a few months and that REALLY was a piece of ****, it rebooted about 4 times a day on stock Samsung ROM.
Before saying something as violent as that, you should invest more time actually TRYING to make your phone better (god knows I've seen a lot of init.d scripts).
Also, most optimizations are almost universal to Android, most init.d scripts present on the ROMs you mentioned have been working since FroYo, others are standard Linux optimizations that would work exactly the same on Jellybean.
Last but not least, the differences between ICS and Jellybean are performance based, so Jellybean could actually run better on our phones that ICS.
I know this sounds like trolling but people, please read some more before commenting!!

I highly doubt it, but that's why XDA exists!
That triple buffered 60fps interface looks cool but i doubt our devices have enough ram to handle it.

C'mon Man, 512MB Ram is not any less to handle 60fps, compare it with Apple 4 or any reasonable Windows Phone. when they create a code for smooth graphics, why do Android required more Ram ?
Should i remind you guys that even the Nexus S is getting JB? It has basically the same specs as the Neo, but on a more dated SoC.

When it comes to OS updates specs don't really matter to manufacturers, what matters is making a lot of money, also most system updates are held back by carriers, not manufacturers.
There's a pretty knowledgeable account of this here and in the comments.
Biggest question is:
Comes it official to our Neo/Neo V??

If you look at recent history, SE abandoned the X10 on Eclair until user feedback was bad enough to force them to do the GB update, so it's not that far-fetched to think that Sony will abandon the Xperia 2011 line claiming something about hardware compatibility or some other insane ass thing in order not to update.
Hopefully our extremely knowledgeable devs will find a way to port it to our devices, who knows, maybe some sort of CM10 or AOKP port.
why posting this if Sony not releasing it for us Xperia Neo and Neo V users.
false hope

well.. my point was that... it's not because of thirty thanks in a thread that those dev are developping on the xperia play... unfortunately, it's a dead device... and maybe they will loose their passion to dev on it... so I pointed out the money way... anyway ahah

how can it move faster if its like you said a dead device?
its a bit outdated but x8,x10,mini and others are older,more outdated and with lower specs and are still alive..nobodyatall just release kernel 3.xx for those devices..xplay always have users ,its still a good phone and with special features that no other phone have..for me and many of us its very hard to change..even if many of us already tried..keep coming back to xplay.
until sony releases a xplay 2..im sticking with this amazing phone.
edit:i dont think its money related to developing this..its just some free time and will,just to make it better for all.
Yep you are right, what I'm saying is completely wrong sorry
money is there if there is no passion anymore... there is plenty of better phone so it's completely normal for dev to move on
Anyway, you'll probably wait a lot of time before the next xperia play I guess

Maybe in September I could continue to develop.
You forgot one great person, KeiranFTW.
He's most likely helping all old developments of Xperia Play.
You also forogt paxchristos as help helped with the inital port of jellybean and a bunch of stuff for verizon varenits.
Honestly though a thread like this belongs in general section, we work on this when we can, school and part time jobs come first. And family but I still live with mine so thats all the time.
I quote everything in first post and I hope we have a JB rom stable someday. Although even if we get stuck in ICS is fine for me, I keep my Xperia Play
Sente from my Xperia Play using the only bug-free and stable ICS ROM available: Hybrid ROM by Krisdee

if you understand that going in general section, just put it in this section in order to get their attention, I apologize .. and now that some people saw, moderators feel free to move it to the general section .. Thanks for your answers ...
And apologies again ..
Cheers.
I'm not completely gone, just swamped with the new company (getting paid for Android development takes priority over XDA, sorry but that's life)
Though I don't plan on getting back into the Xperia Play. Without any decent ICS+ support and the poor hardware by today's standards, I don't see the point.
I highly recommend the new Xtreamer flagship model "JoyZ"; our own Deck OS designed ROM with the same SoC as an SGS3 but at 299 euros - and outperforms it in most ways, thanks to my (and another fellow Aussie's) work

Take care!

It runs MIUI right?
Very expected of CosmicDan.
Edit :
Also I read it uses Exynos (Samsung CPU). But only Samsung has sources so this phone lacks USB OTG (and a couple of other less minor stuff) support right?
Product looks great though. Hope you're having fun out there developing CosmicDan

Dear Samsung
, the development community, are striving very
hard to achieve that objective. Many users of
Android based Samsung devices want to make the
phones released by you truly inspirational and
surpass any competition. These powerhouses will
achieve its true potential only when the
development community get the Rom Source Codes
will not only benefits the end user but will also be
highly beneficial forSamsung in the long run, as
these customers will then get utmost satisfaction
with their device and will then help in the word-of-
mouth publicity of Samsung products all over the
world.
A truly inspirational product is born when it
inspires the masses and is able to mesmerize the
entire world. With great phones like Samsung Galaxy Star Duos Gt-S5282, we are witnessing a paradigm shift in the
mobile industry and need your little help in making
this turning point even more monumental.
We request you to release the source code for the rom(and not just the kernel) as well as drivers for the different hardware components that require it.
We hope we will not be disappointed by a customer
centric company like yours. Hoping for a positive
response.
Warm regards,
A true Samsung fan.

oh, you mean this github.com/codekidX/android_device_samsung_gt-s5282 ?
that tree is not even half complete.. and sorry but half of the commits there are ******** >_>
the only complete tree is cm-10.1 by unjust. however he did a blind update for cm11, but that needs a lot of reworking :|
and as for the patches, you can see my post in the other thread.. :s

i'm Back! with a capital B and an exclamation mark
i don't remeber joking about anything :/
and screw petitions.. if you think samsung will release anything (other than the kernel which they have to if they don't wanna get ***** because it's GPL), then you all need take your head out of samsung's ****
samsung doesn't want people to make custom roms.. if their 1 year old Galaxy Star 4.1.2 is running a smooth and stable 4.4.4, who the hell is gonna buy their new Galaxy Sh!t 4.4.4 with their new and improved Touchwiz?

it's of no use, they will just ignore it.. just take exynos for example :|
nope not that i know of.. samdung only releases source for kernel, cause that's what they need to release anyway..
the source was released by broadcom for their gpu videocore iv for raspberry pi, which iirc turned out to be not so helpful for galaxy y..
looking at the gerrit review of androidarmv6.. it looks like they are modifying sources to work with proprietary blobs and modifying other sources to work with the device.. and that's for audio, gpu etc...
those, work in this device.. camera can be fixed on further looking.. the HAL was working but crash is due to some memory heap error..
the only problem is of ril.. and i already have said about ril in other thread
Done
Done
I dont think samsung cares about releasing source other than kernel which is why this friday I'm buying Moto G and leaving Samsung for good. You guys should do the same since samsung wont care and keep making bull**** phones.

Only because they *must*, unless they only want to sell their phones where copyright does not exsist. They are not by required by the apache license to give the source. Just take a look what they did and are doing with the exynos.
I don't know what the f**k is samsung doing, they could have just updated this old device, but no they release new ones with basically just a little hardware improvement which could have been done firstly in the old one. :|
Speaking about hardware the sc8810 board used this device can handle 640x480 resolution and 1gb of ram just fine. And the new star ii they are going to release is supposed to use sc8815 board which can handle 800x480 resolution.
But no, they have to cripple it down to no good and make people think spredtum is ****ty. though not good as the big games out there. spreadtrum makes considerable SoC for the price it is offered.
And you can find far better spec'd spreadtrum devices produced by other companies. But many people won't even look at those devies and buy the crippled samsung ones, cause it's samusung duh. >_>
And oh, they also say, the 1gb galaxy s3 is not able to handle kitkat. and here people get kitkat running on 3 year old armv6 device with 290mb of ram :3
Good, thing my star broke, i wanted to throw it anyway. =|
By the way welcome back. and thanks for contributing to this device. if it was not for you and others this device wouldn't even imagine of making a place in xda.
And have fun with your new Moto G =)

hmm waiting for mine to break. But ill have to break it with perfect timing to get a new mobile.
And they released 4 new phones just when better mobiles were crushing the market. The biggest noobs here might be better than samsung at such things. Uhhh!
Well this 1 was the gud 1(At its price) when i bought it so really cant complain on the better mobiles but if they just paid a bit of attention on this phone No-one wud be mad

I really tried to get CM in this device but due to limited source code it is impossible. Thanks for your contributions too and it is good to be back!

ril would have worked without source if they had not modified the API too much, the audio, hwc and others work pretty well..
if star 2 will use standard api, there is a chance it can be portred for star, too.. as the board is similar
anways, this device has no developer for now, at least a bootable build of cm11 could be made if any one was working on it :3
welcome back bro
i checked with the htc devs but to no avail none of them are ready to touch a stupid samsung device(u can see why)
 @superuser tried to help but naa it dint work out.
and are u gonna develop 4 dis device?
and ur star broke?
so darn lucky:laugh:
