Google on Tuesday announced that the full SDK for Android 3.0 is now available to developers.
"The APIs are final, and you can now develop apps targeting this new platform and publish them to Android Market," Xavier Ducrohet, Android SDK tech lead, wrote in a blog post.
Along with the new platform, Google said it is releasing updates to its SDK Tools (r10) and ADT Plugin for Eclipse (10.0.0).
In the ADT Plugin, Google had added: new palette with categories and rendering previews; more accurate rendering of layouts that will more faithfully reflect how layouts look on devices; selection-sensitive action bars to manipulate View properties; zoom improvements, including fit to view, persistent scale, and keyboard access; and improved support for "merge" layouts and layouts with gesture overlays.
Google also added Traceview integration for easier profiling from ADT and tools for using the Renderscript graphics engine.
More details are available on the Android 3.0 Platform Highlights page.
Google released a preview of the Android 3.0 "Honeycomb" SDK in late January to allow developers to start testing their apps on tablets. Earlier this month, Google also held an event in San Francisco to more formally unveil Honeycomb. It also unveiled the Android Market Web Store, a Web-based version of the Android app store.
The first tablet running Android 3.0 Honeycomb, the Motorola Xoom, hits stores on Thursday.
uff
noooooo now that i need to send my folio to the assistance for the soundboard problem.... please you can wait sometime for build a release 3.0 for the folio??? ahahahahhaha
i confirm that on the android sdk is now accessible the platform 3.0 api 11, my best notice of the 2011 for now!
moved to general as not android development
Yeah! I've just readen this good news too on a news website!! So, does this mean dev's can start working on a 3.0 update for our folio's?
How long to get honeycomb on Folio?
I'm starting the count down right now
Now for serious, 2.2 is fine for me as long compatible apps keep coming to it. It will be needed a few months before We see honeycomb in full glory. I guess that there's a huge pression to get it right this time.
need this!
I realy need this for my Folio!
please...port it!

theres only one person who can do that at the moment and that is dext3r
What google has released is SDK, software development kit.
This is tools to build Honeycomb application, not Honeycomb itself.
For the Folio to get Honeycomb we will need a rom from a machine similar enough.
No such thing exists (yet).
Yes of course! SDK is only for software development, but is one first step toward a possible mod. Some tegra 2 tablets with similiar hardware specs will be launched this week, I don't think Xoom from motorola is that similiar.
One other option is to have source code and a set of compile options, and them try to build it from scratch.
I guess the main obstacle could be the drivers and hardware support. Must of these will have to be built from ground up and will take a considerable amount of time. I guess that it's feasible but to get a rom as polished as 1.4 we will still have to wait...
It's still good news though !
Thanks for explanation,now i'm so sedder but i believe somebody can do it
but how said "bastospn",this is first step to build new rom
well guys...
but any chance to have honeycomb working on folio?
whats the problem to port it to our deveces?
i got nexus one also and im trying the honeycomb release roight now....

1st, you need a full source from Google, not just a SDK like someone has already pointed out. 2nd, porting is not an easy job...especially when the target device has a bunch of difference hardware components than the reference device. If there's no compatible drivers, sometimes you need to spend days/weeks of writing drivers/ debugging...
What you have on your Nexus one I believe is just an emulator port and thus extremely slow

I know! This really sucks!
I'm sure we could just install the .apk? I did that with Temple run on the stock ROM it ran but it was a tad laggy.. Darn Google and wanting to make us buy new phones!

Its probably the lack of a GPU that makes our phone unsupported, since Chrome relies heavily on it.
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using xda premium
its not google's fault...the fact is ...out phone it from an vintage age...with an arm 6 processor,no gpu....a ldpi screen...
if you want ics...or jellybean shift to a better fone...and if you wanna stick to willy...be happy with what you get... preferably cm6 or cm7 is the best option till now
and guys before posting any-ting please test it....if its compatible with wildfire then only post...

Hello I am SferaDev!
About me:
Well I am a young developer of only 17 years, I love the Android world and expanded universe of Star Wars. I started programming with JAVA three years ago, then I played some Metro and web and finally I been charmed by the Android experience.
My Android Apps:
My first application was published here on XDA a Task Manager with Holo interface, which bear multiple tasks.
Then, I developed my first "big application" whose development is still in progress and has been LAIA: Learn Android in Android. This app has been a source of review on the XDA portal and has more than 2,000 active downloads at Google Play.
After an afternoon with some friends, occurred to me DateUp. That allows quickly contact friends and propose a plan via Whatsapp.
When testing the library to create random objects and use databases, I developed an application called Random Option.
Recently, I created a utility for root users at 4.2 with a phone that has no multi-user support. The application is called Multiple users feature enabler.
Also I've made my own launcher called Dummy Launcher, designed for kids and old people but honestly it doesn't appeal to XDA users.
What I'm working on, now:
I am working with Paranoid Android team at the moment. I also maintain (unofficially right now) Omni for my device and I work with Illusion Rom when I have time. A detailed list of my ROM work on xda could be (Till JB 4.3 as KK is not stable atm):
Paranoid Android for the Galaxy S: A Jelly Bean 4.3 build with HALO 2.0, App Privacy and a bunch of new features!
Illusion for the Galaxy S: A Jelly Bean 4.3 build with tons of features!
Omni for the Galaxy S: A Jelly Bean 4.3 build with a pure AOSP feeling!
XDA RD Petition:
I made some months ago a request to be a Recognized Developer here on XDA, but they have decline it. The reason it's that I have to improve my work on XDA. So I have been working at XDA till now and I have reapplied to the RD program.
RK29 Tabs
As I own a RK29 tab I've been involved in testing and adapting rooting methods for them in ICS and also posting official updates here in XDA.
I have stopped development on this device due hardware issues with mine.
Thank you for reading and if you wanna support my freely work use the Thanks button and/or the donate to me button!
See you!
Are there currently any apps for android that give you the airdrop experience?
This would help me to
That will probably be something that will be more than likely developed by AOSP as part of the new OS, rather than an app developed by a third party.
Hi,
I've been lately interested in developing apps for my Suunto 7 Wear OS device. I'd like to that with new Jetpack Compose UI toolkit and Kotlin. Anyone experimented with that combination for Wear OS development?
We've released the first alpha.
We will have some general samples coming in the next couple months as well, but that should allow you to play around with it.
