Who else is dying for AOSP? - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

Been playing with my wife's gnex and amazed how much faster and smoother everything is, even though the lte is technically almost twice as fast.
What goes into porting it over to our devices now that the kernel source is out? Are we waiting on drivers for something?

you do know that deck is porting it right?
do you even read?

It's not really a port since he's building from source.
But there are many people working on aosp. Miui, aokp, Cm10 are all in the works.
Just gotta enjoy the ride till they are done.
I'd suggest hopping in irc and flashing decks Cm10 build. It's awesome

I cant wait either. I had a Galaxy Nexus with JB so it will be nice when it hits our phones. The tasking on this phone is just bad...

After having a nexus 7 I would be happy to have AOSP on the Evo but I'd miss image sense.

Not to be a butthead, but it's not the "end of story".
We don't have cm10. What we have are some early stages of aosp roms, with glitches and things that don't work. So... The story goes on!
I want aosp, will also miss image sense, but this phone has not been good to me like previous evos. Maybe aosp will help

Your wrong, we DO have CM10 and thanks to KushDeck our CM10 is more stable than Most of the officially supported CM10 roms. Derailing it just cuz it only has a few bugs isn't good and tbh is pretty disrespectful, hell even without Image Sense it still takes good pics so I don't see that as an issue either.

Haha, ok.
I was in no way disrespectful. I didn't derail anything.
Is it bugfree? Nope. Just a fact, not disrespectful. These things take time. You acknowledge is has bugs, so did I...are we both "disrespectful"? Calm down.
Also. Imagesense is awesome. You don't see an issue without it and thats fine, that is your opinion and not the end all be all. AOSP may never get this feature. Is it a big deal? Not really, there is always going to be some trade offs. Some of us will miss it, no disrespect there.
Also, is it even released to the masses? Nope. You have to dig to find the latest build. So we don't really "have" anything. That doesn't mean they aren't working hard on it and throwing out some really good builds...just means it isn't ready yet.

Exactly, I still think they are promising but too early for a daily driver.
What else goes into the process of porting to a device if the source is already out?

unofficial CM10 nightlies
Not everyone knows they there are nightlies on IRC, we keep looking in the Orignal Rom section looking for updates.
I mean no disprespect but unless you find the nightlies there seems to be no action going on. I was totally unaware of Decks "Unofficial CM10" until the other day and then they shut my thread down when I meant no disprespect . Maybe there can be a little more clarity to help some of us with less experience find some of the test roms..

I don't get what the big deal is, AOSP is awesome, but Sense is just as good, the difference is mostly visual, we'll get 4.1 soon enough
Swyped on my EVO LTE

To explain... Most of why people choose AOSP over Sense is definitely NOT for the visuals. Before ICS especially, vanilla android was always considered ugly, but the functionality of the AOSP ROMs was worth the ugliness. Now since ICS, I can't even say that. Now I find AOSP ROMs to be nicer looking AND more functional. I have found better battery life, much more memory, more tweaks, smoother performance, actual multi-tasking, and probably 10 other things I can't think of right now.

Well, sense is not exactly bad, but it's slow compared to cm10, drains the battery faster, and you get a lot of unnecessary stuff from sprint and htc that you don't need (bloatware). Just think of this: htc sense is about 600-700 megs, while CM10 is about 150 megs. That's how much bloatware htc and sprint add to this phone. Also, IMHO, aosp is much better looking and elegant as well (tron-ish blue on black background).
Again, HTC Sense is not bad, but it's deffinitely not better than AOSP, but I can see how Sense is more than enough for some.

You can download deck's cm10. it's mostly stable, just a few things still need fixing/tweaking. The only reason I switch back to meanrom is that calendar app was not pulling my work's calendar, only gmail's calendar. I can't wait until it's fully functional!

I don't get it either I personally have never been impressed with ASOP. CGM is in a permanent state of beta and always seems to lack. Sorry.

Nah, CM7 was perfect for OG EVO.
Just wait, CM10 is almost perfect already.
