Why aokp? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

What made us go from aosp 2.3 to aokp 4.0 what's the difference? I understand what kanging is but why do all stock ics roms say aokp instead?

AOKP is a specific popular ICS ROM available for multiple devices. It is not AOSP, but it is based on AOSP with features added.

This. It's in the same vein as MIUI.

I guess it's AOSP insofar as it's built on Code Aurora and CM sources which both have their roots in AOSP, but isn't that the case with all Android ports?
aosp (android open source project) is the pure original android source which manufacturers use to build their branded phones also used by branches like CM and eventually devs use for their custom roms. everything is based on aosp. it the "source". if you want to call a rom aosp based then it must be completely vanilla

That's what I thought. There's none for the P500 right?

well...the way I see it if you want to get the closest to aosp for a particular device then you'll have to take a stock rom and strip it from all the branded code and bloatware.
That's the curse of android. It's getting modified by manufacturers and carriers so much that it can work to each one device with all this different hardware and gui and filled with bloatware and in result it's becoming a bit difficult to be talking about vanilla version. vanilla compared to what?
i'm trying to working on it pure gingerbread....but it is not simple!
Please try your best devs.. ;-)

AOKP or customizable reliable ICS rom? Or NON SENSE ROM?

any AOKP roms?? For cdma?
Or any reliable ICS roms with some customization? Like bottom status bar and no sense!
All we have for this thing is freaking sense roms and I hate them.... I need some vanilla android

there's a cm9 unofficial alpha which isnt very stable (last i checked), there's an ICS ROM which works pretty well (it's called ICS AOSP 4.0.3 or something like that) which I'm running in boot manager along side InfectedROM Eternity 3.0, and there's an unofficial MIUI v4. All of those are made by Joelz. There are other ROMs too, those are just the ones I thought of off the top of my head. You need to read more if you've been to the dev section and still haven't found a single ICS or AOSP ROM
AOKP is going to be a stretch until ICS is properly released. I'm sure it'll be ported with a lot of things working, but also lot of things missing.
We've had AOKP ports for a few weeks now.. Check the CM9 thread.

First off, HTC has nothing to do with it.
Secondly, both versions of CM are based off open source Android and tweaked to the CM team's desires and wants.
CM7 is based off of Gingerbread.
CM9 is from Ice Cream Sandwich
I'd do some research if I were you.
New versions of android.

So, is anyone working on a GPE Rom for the DNA?

Just wondering if anyone is working on this, how many people are waiting for it, etc... I like stock android more than sense and with all the htc one based roms out there, is it easier to do a one based GPE Rom than porting CM to our device?
I'd use CM, but I like my Bluetooth audio more than stock android.

i heard that GPE isnt even stock android, its just de-sensed. besides, there are a million different 4.2.2 AOSP roms already, i dont think anyone would even bother porting over GPE. just my opinion
Every AOSP Rom so far that I've found doesn't have working Bluetooth audio though. The GPE Roms aren't just de-sensed to my knowledge, they aren't AOSP, but they are close enough for me.

[Q]A question about AOSP

We know that there are lots of AOSP based ROMs, such as CM, omni, etc. But why nearly all the developers don't like to migrate original AOSP to our phones, but only CM, omni, carbon, and so many custom ROMs? What's wrong with the original Google code? Anyone know the reason about that? I know that these custom ROMs have many additional features, but I just like pure Android.
No answers?

Mostly it is that I think your mistaking google code for pure aosp. They are 2 different things. A pure aosp build has no options and is very plain. Most don't want the bare bones. Also this a development forum, which means that we don't settle core base software. Anyone can sync and build a stock rom

I got it. Thank you. But in my opinion, build a pure aosp is not easy as you say, probably I'm new here

Depending on the device all you have to do is a set up a build setup, then sync the repo and build it. Not that hard.
