Here is the first Honeycomb leak for the Flyer in RUU form. Now that I see someone else has access to the leak my source has authorised me sharing it.
I'll be posting it pre-rooted and MCR'd etc. next week when my new Flyer arrives, in the interim, flash with caution - at your own risk - and enjoy!
EDIT: It's not recommended to flash this ROM on it's entirety - I will release a fully tested build soon. This is recommended for developers only!
Please note HTC classes this as an early Beta!

Firstly, uh what? Was it officially released by HTC? No? Then it's a leak my friend.
Secondly, the post clearly says it's a Beta.

If someone could grab a couple of screenshots I can post here and send to a friend for their news post that would be much appreciated.

For anyone flashing this. Just be aware. If you have a S-Off device which is not a test unit from HTC it will get stuck at the HTC logo. You need an official S-Off device for it to work.
Everyone else will need to wait until someone packages it for CWM.

I will do this as soon as I have my new Flyer.
You should be able to grab the ROM contents and flash everything apart from the hboot at a guess to get it booting? Can't test atm tho.

Any chance this can be ported to the View? I'll take a look when I get home but I suspect it will take some doing.

Can anyone confirm this? I really want to install, but would hate to get a boot loop.
Does everything work?

I'll take a shot at porting it to the view, I just get the feeling we'd be losing 4g connectivity at the least, if not the whole radio. Do we know if this leak is for the wifi flyer or the 3g flavour?

Just giving a heads up thanks to anyone thats also going to be trying to port this to the view.I really respect and honor anyone with the knowledge to get this done.Like I said thanks for anyone and everyone that has anything to do with this rom getting ported to the flyer or view.mad respect
I can't get it booting on the Flyer..
@Paul: have you changed anything in the boot.img?
Just a heads up that I updated my Honeycomb Leak Install guide to cover a new leak I have managed to get my hands on, version 3.41.405.1.
Full details can be found in this topic.
Unfortunately you will need to roll back to Gingerbread in order to install it.

The hboot changed, the radio changed, the kernel changed and appears to be incompatible, all the methods I tried this morning to 'get it on' failed.

So if we have a bestbuy flyer that can't rollback to gingerbread, then we won't be able to upgrade correct?

Awesome! Notice any big differences yet? Does your source have any idea how close this beta is to final? I was too chicken to install the previous leak, but I might man up for this one...

Ok, I may be barking at the wind here but, is there a way to flash the required components thru fast boot commands (I am not sure if this can be done on the Flyer like it can on the Dell Streak 5) where you would use fast boot commands to flash the individual extracted components, base rom, recovery, radio, etc similar to adb. (since there is currently no proper method for US BB WiFi Flyers to revert to GB)
Cheers

Agreed, people are working on this (Including Paul) I have no doubt that the issues will be figured out and we will get past the current problems. In the meantime, we discuss and help where possible. There is even talk of a possible hybrid version. Bottom line, this will get figured out.

Just thought I'd introduce myself. I'm not rooted yet, but I wanted to let you guys know that I would probably be hanging around. I may decide to globaltron my Flyer to HC, but I like GB, so I'll probably wait. I spend most of my time around the Inc2 Forums, though.

Annnndddd. We're done. Happy Honeycomb!!!
If I ever want to install a HC custom ROM, how would I do it? Just put on sdcard and flash through recovery?
Provided you used globatrons s off hc install, yes that is all.
Sent from my HTC Flyer P510e using xda premium
Hey, I've seen you around the Inc2 forums. If you are looking for custom roms, I would recommend the cool3d rom, the dev is similar to newt in that he optimizes for performance. Very fast, very stable. I just installed doomlord's new kernel. Works so far, but I'm waiting to see how it fares for battery life.
Edit: May have spoke too soon. Leedroid is dropping a new update soon that apparently has working soft keys again =O He also says he improved the battery life. I will definitely be checking that out.

One male and two females?? I want to find someone with a bunch of tadpoles so I can raise them myself..
Sent from my PG41200 using xda premium
Actually 3 males lol. I tried to get a female but it turned out to be a fat male.
Okay so here's the deal. I was attempting to add some tweaks to file systems (system, devlog, and cache). I flashed my ROM with the tweaks included and then powered off from recovery because I had to pick a friend up from work. I came home and when I turned my flyer on it just booted to a black screen. So I tried rebooting into bootloader and recovery through adb and they both rebooted to this same black screen. No htc splash or anything.
Things I have tried:
Re-flashing recovery
Running RUU's
Re-flashing bootloader
Flashing zips through fastboot from Globatron's HC upgrade thread
Letting it die and trying again
Pretty much everything I can think of
When I flash any zip through fastboot, it says something like "Failed: remote id".
When i run any RUU, it says either that the battery is too low (which I know it isn't because I've charged overnight) or that it can't continue because there is a model ID error. I've tried using RUUs from the 3g flyer, wifi flyer, and US wifi flyer (I own the US wifi version) and they all say the same thing.
I still have adb and fastboot access, so I'm confident that this is fixable, but it is beyond my knowledge now and I need your help! So please if you have any suggestions, throw them out here! Let me know if more details are needed.
I tried looking at other "my Flyer is bricked" threads but none seemed to help my current situation.
Figures I was going to start working on my ROM again and this happens
Maybe
Fastboot erase cache
Almost sounds like you are in download mode. I have read in a couple threads allong the way of people finding themselves there but struggling to get out
Yeah I've tried that already with no avail. It's so weird. But how would've this triggered download mode?
yea I am not sure, nor am I sure my idea holds any water since you have allowed your flyer to completely drain. I believe that once you did that and it charged enough to power on you would be out of download mode. I think. when you do an adb reboot or fatboot reboot recovery it does appear like your flyer is rebooting? I know the end result is a black screen, but is it seamingly turning off then on again?
Well when I reboot it just sits at the black screen and vibrates once. It might go dark for a second but I would have to check again, and it is charging right now.
I don't like bumping threads, but I'm pretty desperate here. I tried fooling around with it some more and I still have nothing. Any input at all would be appreciated

Well that's the thing, I'm never really in the botloader. I'm at a black screen no matter what I do however I can still use fast boot and adb. I might try that when it charges again.
Whenever I try to flash a zip through fast boot it says "failed remote id not allowed"
I'm thinking maybe it has something to do with the boot loader but I really haven't got a clue. When I type fast boot getvar all it says that I'm still s-off.
I even tried changing my main version to no avail.

Nope. To use fastboot I have to use adb to reboot to the bootloader and then if I want to use adb I have to fastboot reboot.

Sadly, I think you're right I just tried to unlock my bootloader as a last resort and I got to the point where you use the volume buttons to make an on screen selection and that screen never popped up. So I guess my screen really is dead..
Yeah it sucks but I've found stuff on mobile devices tend to just up and die without warning, I guess your best bet is HTC support. I know someone on here had a bad charging jack and wasn't able to revert to stock and they still honored his warranty and fixed his flyer

Completely correct. If you flash the wrong hboot, and the Flyer won't power on, no charging lights, can't get into hboot, recovery, and not recognized by adb, you are pretty much screwed.
That is why you need to be extremely careful when flashing things like hboot and recovery. Quadruple check everything before you do it.

Why are you digging up old threads, and adding your own issue (unrelated question) to them? The one thread you created was enough. Cross posting is against the rules, and isn't going to get you an answer any faster.
