[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.

ICS and Sense 3.6 for Sensation out now

http://www.engadget.com/2012/03/08/htc-ics-sense-nordic/
Does that mean a custom rom for us soon enough?

yes.. i guess..
i am waiting for Virtuous to fix all ICS issues soon..

If I remember correctly Virtuous team was waiting for Sensation XL release.
HTC launched ICS but I tought it was only for Sensation and Sensation XE, not XL.
If so, I'll guess we have to keep on waiting :/

i guess HTC said "later this year" for Incredible S

First of all, HTC must release Drivers for the Incredible S to fully function on ICS. As soon as they release, our developers will start making their ROM. Custom ROM will be atleast 2 months before the official release. But yes, There will be some problems in the start and will get fixed soon. Till Then i can say "Wait for 6 more months if you want to taste the fully functioning Ice Cream Sandwich in your Incredible S"

And then it is the end of the year and everybody looking for Android 5.

Surely this is the price we pay for not having the latest up to date phones. This is exactly what HTC want so that we go out and upgrade to the newer models.

Yep, money talks - unfortunately.
Imho its just silly to buy completely new hardware just for a software upgrade that isnt even demanding for the current hardware.

True. But its always nice having that brand new phone feeling haha

Haha amen!

I found devs custom rom is always superior than official HTC rom. If HTC will release official ROm i won't go for it. HTC sense doesn't matter for me. Custom roms by devs are always rocks. What you say??

Gonna try to become a developer . :)

Hi everyone ive been on the HTC Vivid 4G Andriod Development and i seen that its dead....XD and im currently working on getting permission to continue on a rom and if i learn even more about C++ im gonna help with the Sence 4 ril :fingers-crossed:

Hey man, good stuff! I've been a developer for years, but just getting into Android dev as of late. Good luck with the Sense 4 stuff.

same here ^_^ working on my first rom.. already did some framework-res mods and stuff xo but yeahh it is dead around here we need more devs .!

I was thinking about this too. Where does one learn? As in, what are some good books to buy on the subject? Thanks in advance.

Depends entirely on what your experience is. There's a big difference between learning to cook having never cooked a thing in your life, and learning to cook French cuisine if you're already a master sushi chef.

I'll play it safe and say I've never cooked a thing in my life, but my dad is also a system engineer and could help if I needed it. I'd rather learn without his help.

Start with an RUU. Run the RUU on your PC. Stop at the first screen after it's done loading, don't proceed, but don't close the window. Start/Run and type %TEMP% and hit enter (this will take you to your user temp folder). Sort the folders by date and open the newest. Here you should find Rom.zip. Use this as your base ROM in the kitchen. Root it, deodex it (or not), zipalign it, etc - and you end up with a flashable ROM from an RUU

Zero devs ATM?

unfortunately they were good devs

[Req] S4 Or S3 TouchWiz?!

HI ALL HTC ONE USERS

Sent from my HTC One using xda premium

Why?!? Touchwiz sucks compaired to sense. That's coming from a recovering Samsung fanboy. I had used all the generations of touchwiz and sense was always better. If you're gonna use a different company's launcher use Sony's.

I was trying to find the same thing and did a bit of searching. As far as I can tell nobody has really fully ported it over yet but I could be wrong though, hopefully one of the devs who knows more can chime in with an answer...

Absolutely! And with all that choice comes strong opinions on what the best choice is.

Exactly. Choice is why people have enjoyed android. No need to berate someone for their preference.

Hysterical. Not sure if serious or trolling :highfive:

You're all ridiculous. Really. The guy just wants a damn touchwiz launcher. NOT your foolish fanboyims & your opinions on him asking for it. Is that so hard to understand? wooow.
"But samsung is ..... "Sense is so much better", "Sony has ______" , "Burn an S4"
