Google JellyBean(4.1.1) for Flyer only is a development of CM10, with base in RandomBlame cm10 string of android compile.
this is aroma installer based, so during install you can chose between tablet or phoneUI based use.
v.18 download here
GoogleApps from here
Kernel source used can be downloaded here (sorry, no git)
if you used HTC Unlock and S-OFF'd using that, you ALWAYS need to flash new boot.img manually, search "fastboot flash boot boot.img" if do not already know how to use it.
Remember that 2 boot images exists, one with htc keys enabled(phoneUI) and one without.
Always believe its best and safest to WIPE/factory reset in recovery and double it with full wipe in installer too.
If you are on Gingerbread, you need to upgrade to HoneyComb firmware, before this works and have your Hboot S-off'd too.(Revolutionary solution preferred)
if you feel launcher seems laggy (as i), install another one from Play store, i feel it needs to be kept as is, so i did not replace it for another.
everything works except topics below
- no bluetooth headset audio supported
- front camera / video recording function.
- wifi tether / wifi hotspot function
- video hardware accelerated playback
iamchucky - fling correction to my pen driver.
GuestK00388 - for the work on a clean aokp compile build for our flyer with previous aokp release
randomblame - for the work on DesireHD with the jellybean development upto beta3 and recent 18.2 build used in cm10 release
barrmulio - for the 160dpi hack to support 7" devices at 1024x600 resolution.
jmztaylor - view kernel origin.
Chaosz-X and LeeDroid - Flyer kernel origin.
kamistral - a small thanks for the 3G confirmation on build v11beta2
yncconsult - early release used yncconsult kernel. (no source compiled here)
Donate users: a thank you to those users that started donating on xda the last few weeks. it is appreciated and i will to support as much is possible.

BUG REPORTS
display does not turn completely OFF by itself , you have to manually press powerbutton to get it all off, when you want standby.
Youtube HQ only works in 240dpi resolution (how to watch HD youtube is unknown for now)
no h/w accelerated video playback in gallery, only divx software decoding works for now. use alternative included MX player to fix this.
circle pointer hack
for those who want to get rid of circle when using pen/pointer. see this post here or download attachment directly here.

some feedback on performance.
i get around 2950 in antutu benchmark tests, worth mentioning?
4-august - new test 3267 (highest of 4 at 1.6Ghz)

Thanks Dexter. Nice try. Appreciate it.

will have to try later. nice to at least be able to see it running

---

Nice work Dex!!

---

I imagine the stylus is also not working?

---

Nice, Dex! Did you see Shaky's patches for Desire and DHD? Think these may help us too?
HTC Flyer p510e

True, i almost took that part as non-existing currently for new roms since we dont see it working or know how to fix the "press".
as people would say it works almost too good, since you can have 3cm from the tablet and it still thinks your moving around but sadly that is yet to be looked at. i personally do not prioritize it for now on this since rom is not much different from Chaosz work here.

no, ill look at it later

Congratulations on this build.
Will Wait for 3g and HD video fixes, as these are a must for me. But I think we can play HD videos in mx or BS player. What say?
So, this leaves only 3g to be fixed and I am in.
Btw, what about scrolling?

---

Downloading now, but will be able to flash tomorrow only. Battery low and its12:22 am here in India.

i included MX player, and plays 720p content on my flyer fine(mkv's) .
and yes, 3G needs more testing which i do not know if i can do much about.
scrolling is just simple said vierd. has to do with density somehow although i included a 160dpi fix, which JB does not accept with 1024x600 7" normally.

---

If you get the pen to act right you're a god. The only reason I have the flyer: a 7" tablet with pen.

Woah, dude! Nice work! I can't wait to try it out!
My tab's Flyer than yours (unless this is posted in a Flyer thread... Then it's just as Flyer...)

No, scrolling has nothing to do with density. The screen reports coordinates in an obscure way, causing VelocityTracker to misbehave. A formula calculates the flingdirection, but it disbehaves on this screen.

correct, but the same function works fine in the 240dpi oneV edition, which is strange... but actually i replaced the smali code for the StackView.smali here, but yes it actually acts less different, except the side gesture is a little bit faster now.

VelocityTracker probably behaves differently in that ROM, I highly doubt it's density. Sense ROMs often take a weird approach on things.

just compared the velocitytracker smali code only minor added code, but no values or formula changes. so the formula is the same, so it comes down to the code calling velocity tracker.. ill see what i find there.
i can say with 160dpi its alot less rubber like, that working in 120dpi mode.but probably not directly related to the 240dpi but like with the other formulas, maybe it all originate in the policy values calculated.
conclusion: requires alot more testing, and many,many guesses

ok im installing now ill also make a video preview and share it on here with you

never mind this doesnt even work .... just flashes htc then shuts back down ... restoring backup now

---

MIC seems working now, so i tried to add 3G support now as well. but headset is still an issue , same for BT.
but a small update.
ill post the update when its all validated to work with new changes done.
