With jb being released to aosp would it be possible to use the ics kernal and jb code to it up and running? Sorry I'm a newb.

Yes, the JB and ICS kernel are the same, we have to wait for the developers to get us a working build of JB.
thank you for replying with this information. and thanks to all the developers for building the roms.
I looking at my magic 8 ball and it says a JB ROM is most likely in the distant future.
I have never built a room, but i would think this would take a lot less time then ice cream sandwich, especially if its the same kernels and radios. Now undoubtedly if we get official jellybean it'd use newer kernels then we have now. And since we can use the same radios and kernels, i would think the locked bootloader wouldn't be an issue. Bit I'm a newb and could be wrong.

You're right in one aspect I think, it won't take as long as ICS did, but still, the source is under 24 hours old, I would give them at least a few days, if not a week or two to get a good ROM built...

Ah ok. Well, yes. I don't think it'll take as long as it did with ICS, but then again, you never know.. There could be some major hiccup along the way and delay it, or it could be done by tomorrow.. I'm hoping for the second one in that But we'll see
Personally, I think that we won't see Jelly Bean from Motorola, if we get it, will be thanks to the dev community...
i read somewhere on a XDA port for galaxy nexus i think. That JB is almost the same as ICS but it need a modification in ramdisk to work, unless what it wont boot.
So without an unlocked bootloader and/or KEXEC we're done
I am trying to get my head around porting ROMs...but my severe lack of knowledge has been a roadblock so far. If someone can and want to join hands in this venture, they are more than welcome...PM me with the details and we will take it forward...
Always remember, great things have small beginnings.
Cheers!

Can totally relate. As you can tell from my device history, I'm used to flashing something new every other week, or at least milking my device for the best possible performance.
I'm actually more of a fan of custom kernels than ROMs, since there's so much kanging and "speed improvements"/"custom scripts"/buzzword featurelist nonimprovements that a lot of new-to-new-ish ROM chefs will include without necessarily knowing what they actually do, if anything. Kernel developers tend to have a bit more of a handle on what's actually going on at both hardware and software levels by sheer necessity.
No discredit to ROM chefs, have the utmost respect for people putting their hard work out there, it's just personal preference. I can just accomplish most of what I want on rooted, deodexed stock - or CM and MIUI are good options. So yeah, that bootloader bothers me a lot, I'd honestly expected it to be unlocked by now.

Hi dear devs,
kholk posted what seems to be an official leaked ROM for the Motorola RAZR (GSM Version).
I was wondering if can be useful for your work... I'm not capable of such a great work so... here is the download link for the ROM.
Many tanks to kholk and Motorola!
Obviously
DON'T FLASH IT IN YOUR MOTOROLA PHOTON/ELECTRIFY!
THIS IS FOR THE MOTOROLA RAZR (EU/ASIAN) ONLY.
I think what we need is an updated kernel for a tegra processor. I'm not sure that we can do much without that. But what do I know?
What we need is the source.
Source, tegra support, and ics kernel
I'm a MoPho-er
honetsly i wouldnt really bother with this. assuming you got the rom to boot youd still need a host of hardware changes with the kernel. and thats just to get it to work 100% on our phone like it does theirs (from what i understand its a rather buggy/busted release for them.
i hope everyone is looking at the big picture tho.. so long after ics source, and they are only this far in their flagship phone... settle on in folks its gunna be a while for ics blur for us
Thanks for your replies!
I think Shabby is right but I saw this rom as a hope because with Vanilla ICS or CM9 it's impossible to have ICS+Webtop ...
However, if somebody is going to try the impossible, I'll be glad to help or test

The Evo 4G will never and was never planned to receive ICS, and yet there are completely functioning ICS builds available for it, with working camera on top of everything else besides the obvious 4G (and maybe a few other things, I haven't followed OG Evo development since I upgraded to this phone).
Official releases aren't a huge deal unless we need them to fix something. The problem with ICS on our phones have to do with the difference between it and GB, as well as our camera. I do not foresee JB to be a big difference from ICS, kind of like Froyo to GB.
So in the end an official release won't matter as long as JB isn't a huge difference over ICS, and we can use the official ICS release in order to make sure the camera works.
You're going to be able to run JB on this phone, do not worry.

I know the phones hardware is more than capable of handling JB. And I'd agree with everything you said, but our phone has some unique needs that others don't. Like you mentioned, the 3d/camera is one of them and also Wimax. ICS has been around for quite a while and there isn't a single ICS build for our phone that is a nice stable daily driver. Getting some of our phone's features to work without the help of HTC may be a bit tough. The development scene of the Evo 3D isn't huge either, though thankfully we have many great devs.
I came to the Evo 3d from the HTC HD2, now that's a phone that seems to be able to run just about anything. Ridiculously massive development scene. It had ICS running long before many other phones and it isn't even an android phone.

I can agree with that, mostly. What I'm trying to say is that, after a release from HTC, we hopefully won't have to worry too much about JB in the future.
Plus as long as jellybean drops within eighteen months technically we are supposed to get it .

Cant Wait for JB
I personally don't think jumping from CM7 to CM9 to CM10 (JB) is the right way to go about things. DZK is doing it right though IMO. He got CM7 stable enough again, IMO; To move on to CM9. He's been working hard and made what 5 Alphas and now on a Beta? (Don't know much anymore as I am on AT&T Atrix 2 now) But thats dedication and loyalty to the X2 for sure. I know he mentioned of a CM10 and JB but I as well as other and I'm pretty sure DZK mentioned, it will be awhile before it's stable enough to release. Now the Kexecis where it's at...if he can crack that, I may personally have to come and dust the X2 off as I have for the Paranoid Port and AOKP port as well as the Beta CM9. With everything else going on, again my opinion would be to keep anticipating JB and hope everything else gets worked on first to grasp stability on these great ROMs that have already been pushed out. Just my $0.02 on the Topic.

I agree with you. I think we need kexec working first. We are already running ICS on a Gingerbread kernel which isn't ideal, but it works. Running Jelly Bean on a Gingerbread kernel might be worse. But this is all in theory, obviously. Who knows, it could be super smooth. But with kexec working on the DX2, its guaranteed to work right. I really hope dragonzkiller can get it working. Especially before I upgrade to something else. It would be a shame if he got it working after everyone has moved on.
I agree I'd much rather get kexec working and have a fully functional CM9 than a half baked, unstable CM10 due to our locked bootloaders and no work-around(kexec).
Sent from my Stock Rooted DROID X2
Well here's to hoping that the kexec gets sorted out so we can keep up with those higher end phones.

So I've been looking around and from what I can tell, the jelly bean situation for the rezound is looking pretty bleak considering the fact that it hasn't even received ics yet. That doesn't phase me though because I figured I could just install a custom rom and get it now; however, it seems thats not the case because for some reason no one seems confident that a custom jelly bean rom for the rezound is possible. Correct me if I'm wrong but aren't there already custom jb roms for other phones? So I was just wondering if anyone could explain to me why a custom jb rom for the rezound is not possible? And if it is why hasn't anyone made one?

K.. my answer for OP: I can almost certainly promise u that by mid next 2013 we should see jelly bean for Rezound. Reason I say that is because as of recently the RIL (which is what allows the phone to receive 4G LTE) has finally been cracked/resolved. And the official OTA ICS is soon for us. Also ICS-Jelly Bean is not that huge of an update, it is most likely we will be receiving that as well.

Considering that only 0.8% (not event one percent) of Android handsets globally have JB, Rezound owners will now be in the category second only to those with GB on their handsets. Enjoy ICS for now and you know very well that the amazing devs here will generate a JB ROM for the Rezound as soon as they have the "raw materials" to do so.

Yes i am very much serious that I'm stuck. Don't get me wrong, i like ics a lot, but I find it annoying that Google releases New versions of android and i don't get to use them until months later. I know it's not Googles fault, but it is frustrating nonetheless. That is why I'm waiting for the next nexus phone. Until then I'll rely on the awesome devs here at xda.
