[DEV] Oh hey, Galaxy Nexus full System dump (Ice Cream Sandwich)

Hey guys,
Thanks to Paul O'Brien over at MoDaCo we now have a full system+recovery dump of the Galaxy Nexus running Ice Cream Sandwich.
http://android.modaco.com/page/news/_/android/04-nov-icl23d-galaxy-nexus-boot-recovery-r51

This is really cool.

Wow, hopefully now developers can create ICS inspired custom roms. Cheers!

there's like 10 of these over at the dhd section lol

No ... This is a system dump from the phone ... Not an SDK dump ... This good ...

Where did you hear this?

These are the files you need to port a device. They need to be altered severely to run on the incs. Extreme development knowledge is needed to make use of this. However a developer could grab bits and pieces from it if they have greater knowledge in one area than another.

The ics update will be coming to this and many other htc devices as stated yesterday to myself in a bell store by an htc rep.

but it won't come anytime this year, probably end of Q1 or Q2 2012.

As usual, doesn't have incredible s inside the namelist...

incredible s is abandoned already i think lol

if it comes to sensation xl, with has almost same specs, just better cpu, it will be for sure ported to incredible s (if htc doesn't release it officially)

Right now, it looks like HTC are dissing this phone after only 6 months since it was released...

Anyway, is there anyone out there willing to give this a try? Would be really cool to try ICS out ^^

You guys are reading into this way too much.
All they did was give a few obvious ones that would get the upgrade. They never said the rest of their products weren't.

What developers can do with this?

Let me quote myself:
"Right now[...]"
You see? I'm talking about what they've said so far, but what'll happen in the future; sorry, I can't tell and therefore I won't do anything else then hope that HTC will give us an official update to 4.0.
But from what Google said when they showed 4.0, I think that it'll come to the IncS. Sometime.
And to your last part; no, they didn't.
"We’re continuing to assess our product portfolio, so stay tuned for more updates on device upgrades, timing and other details about HTC and Ice Cream Sandwich."
From the same link that I linked in my previous post. So, I'm fully aware of the fact that this only seems to be a preliminary statement from HTC.

Official ICS update for Incredible S

Yes, Update for ICS is Confirmed by HTC in their Global HTC Facebook page. Good news is that, Even Mobile launched in MWC 2011 also Included in the list, Desire
s, incredible s, Desire hd also included in the
list. Android 4.0 will hit sensation series by
march end. Here it goes
"HTC has been working hard to get its Ice
Cream Sandwich upgrades ready, and we’re
excited to announce that our first round of
ICS upgrades will roll out by the end of
March for the HTC Sensation, HTC Sensation
4G and HTC Sensation XE, followed soon
there after by the HTC Sensation XL.
In addition, we can confirm Ice Cream
Sandwich upgrades will be coming later this
year to the HTC Rezound, HTC Vivid, HTC
Amaze 4G, HTC EVO 3D, HTC EVO Design
4G, HTC Incredible S, HTC Desire S and HTC
Desire HD. Stay tuned for more updates on
Ice Cream Sandwich releases in the coming
weeks."

I'm using IceColdSandwich as well, but having camcorder working is a big deal!
Just 2 days ago I was burning inside for not be able to record my drunk friends xD
IMHO official ICS= camcorder working, I can't figure out what else could mean...

I can't wait for the official release too! One of nu friends had the official ICS on his Nexus and it's amazing, just amazing.
Last few days I'm checking for the ICS update every hour...

The stock ROM from HTC will have all of the appropriate drivers for wifi, bluetooth, camera, cam-corder, etc, so those apps should work better on. HTC doesn't have to release the source code for these drivers.
CM9 and AOSP based ROMS generally have generic device drivers that don't always work correctly or as well as the stock ROMs.

Forgot to mention cm9 will be 90-120 mb where as ics with sense will be 350 - 400 with all the HTC crap.

Any news regarding OTA ICS update?

Hi I just want to know if someone has any news from HTC or is following other device's thread and just want to share something that might be interesting to us. It's so sad that development is on hold for a while but let's hope that official ICS release will bring back activity of developers. We need them!

I read in the Evo 3D forum that they will be getting it in the second half of the year
And being a dual core phone, they would be before us?

I have tried both sense and aosp ics, but I still keep coming back to sense 3.5 gingerbread, either affinity or trinity sensation xl.
Because there are some glitches, bugs and things not working, I will stay on gingerbread. And I like sense But the features and improvements in the ics roms look very promising, I liked sense 4 very much
Just make a nandroid backup and flash it, then go back to your backup when you are bored lol
I like to go back to a stable rom where everything works

I'm currently running IceCold Sandwich 7.2 and the truth is I'm in love with AOSP/AOKP ICS. Since I bought my IS I've been always a huge fan of Sense recently I flashed back one of Sense 3.5 roms but it's something that don't surprise me anymore. Given that I'll stick with AOSP until the day HTC decides to come out with something great for us.

MAYBE JB support from htc in a undefinite future.

Hello guys, to me it's a great news; I'm sorry if it's a repost or a false hope...
Directly from HTC site: http://www.htc.com/www/help/android41faq/
What devices will not get Android 4.1?
We work hard to ensure each of our products has the optimal user experience and therefore some products will remain at their current version of Android. In general, devices with 512MB RAM or less will not be upgraded to Android 4.1. At present, these devices include the HTC One V and the HTC Desire C. As we identify other devices that will not be upgraded, we'll provide updated information.
It should be noted that upgrades are not the same thing as ongoing support. Devices not being upgraded to Android 4.1 will still get software improvements, security fixes, and technical support.

even though our phone isn't one of the best seller, I'll hope with all my force for a JB release, but i bet that will take soo long, just thought about ICS for our phone...

Our death will come with the 'in general' bit
Sent from my Nexus 7 using the xda app

I don't want to break your dreams or anything, but it took HTC almost a year to deliver the ICS update... it is also over 18 months since our phone was released, so HTC don't have to bring us anymore updates.
And as you said, this device wasn't that populare. It got stuck between the Desire HD and the Desire S.
You do the math on this one, I might be too pessimistic to think clearly. And wasn't the ICS update from HTC really, really, sluggish?
If you want official JB, get a new phone... hoping for this phone to get another update from HTC is like trying to talk some sense into fanatics...

Yes ICS made the phone real real slow, like a symbian one.
Maybe HTC won't do an update for IncS but maybe they do..DHD was far more popular than the IncS and it didn't had the ICS Update.
This is good news for the Desire X, and that means, port to us =)

Not looking good I think
http://www.htc.com/www/help/android41faq/
If they are "considering" the 4.1 update for other 2011 devices,
So if the Evo3D, rezound, sensation etc are being 'considered' then sorry but we don't really have much of a chance :-\
But please prove me wrong, that would make me definitely get another HTC device

First of all, sense 4.1 isn't jellybean !!
Sense 4+ is jellybean. Anyways, I don't think we will ever get sense jellybean update from HTC.
But hopefully we will get a fully working jellybean built from source like cm10, ect...
To be exact there is cyan x already working great and has a few bugs but hell yea we can use it as a daily driver.
Project butter is working almost perfect (97%) on cyan x ROM. I can see a little lag from time to time but I am not complaining at all

No offense... but... if my maths isn't all f*cked up, wouldn't "4+" include 4.1? Or have I missed something with how HTC have started to name their Sense-things?

Well, they actually called a new Sense version 4+. Anyway, Sense version doesn't have anything in connection to Android version, or at least it's name. It's just a stupid coinsidence that one of the latest version of Android (4.1) has the same number as one of the latest Sense versions (4.1) and there are no dependensies between them.
