Just a few threads down from yours, there's a two-page thread already about this. Heck, there's already at least one modded kernel based on this source.
Edit: I mean, come on. That thread is even mentioned in the post you linked.

Ics 4.0.1 source code

Yay!!! That was unexpected!
Original Post https://groups.google.com/group/android-building/browse_thread/thread/4f85d9242667a85f?pli=1
Setting up the source tree http://source.android.com/source/downloading.html
From Jean-Baptiste Queru-Hi! We just released a bit of code we thought this group might be interested in. Over at our Android Open-Source Project git servers, the source code for Android version 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich) is now available. Here's how to get it: Follow the instructions at http://source.android.com/source/downloading.html Check out the 'ics-release' branch:repo init -u https://android.googlesource.com/platform/manifest -b android-4.0.1_r1 That's it! However since this is a large push, please be aware that it will take some time to complete. If you sync before it's done, you'll get an incomplete copy that you won't be able to use, so please wait for us to give the all-clear before you sync. This is actually the source code for version 4.0.1 of Android, which is the specific version that will ship on the Galaxy Nexus, the first Android 4.0 device. In the source tree, you will find a device build target named "full_maguro" that you can use to build a system image for Galaxy Nexus. Build configurations for other devices will come later. Unfortunately we still don't have our Gerrit code review servers back online. That remains our top priority though, and we hope to have them back soon. This release includes the full istory of the Android source code tree, which naturally includes all the source code for the Honeycomb releases. However, since Honeycomb as a little incomplete, we want everyone to focus on Ice Cream Sandwich. So, we haven't created any tags that correspond to the oneycomb releases (even though the changes are present in the history.) JBQ, on behalf of the AOSP team.

That would be a long wait.
From what I read on the net, the first phone to possess sense 4 is codenamed HTC Ville, and will come out on April.

Virtuous Primadonna

Now that Virtuous has moved permanently to Rootz wiki, info about their new ROMs cannot be found from XDA forums.
So I decided to link the Rootz wiki "news" about Virtuous Primadonna
- Based on the Primo ROM (1.56.401.11)
- Sense 4.0
- Bit O/C
and some other nice things for our Incredible S!
Of course it's still in some sort of Alpha stage so a lot features are not functional,
But nevertheless check it out !

(I take absolutely no credit whatsoever.)
How come they have moved away from XDA?

HTC One source code

Has HTC made any announcements on whether they are releasing source and supporting custom ROMs? Etc
Sent from my Jelly Beaned HTC Amaze!
HTC is still violating the GPL and delaying kernel source 90-120 days. The GPL clearly states that kernel source must be released as soon as the accompanying software(rom) is released.

R: [q] cm9 wifi?
I don't know if I'm going to say something idiot or not, but with the revolution super stripped 3.3 rom the wifi doesn't work, but if you flash a boot.img file, which is in the rom's zip, it will work again... Isn't it possible to flash it before installing cm9?
(I really don't know if what I said is right or not )
Sent from my HTC Desire C using xda premium
It would be good if it was that easy
The problem is that we cannot patch our device's WiFi driver into any other Rom then a Sense-based, because HTC did not include that code in the source code.

In other words, we will not have ANY cm9 or any CM based, AOSP based Roms at all unless we make HTC release the source.
Now there are some things you guys can do to help out which include:
Read the thread Neoyoli posted, further up this thread, and read the first page THOROUGHLY, to get a grasp of what we mean.
Only Send HTC emails relating to what we need do not go off topic! We need the FULL kernel source released, not jellybean etc...
Now if you really want any AOSP or CM based Roms, we need to make HTC release this full kernel source.
Come On send those on Topic Emails!

What is the difference between Android development forum and original Android develop

Sent from my HTCONE using Tapatalk 2
I think the Android dev forum are for those who take stock ROMs from the carrier of the device and modify it to their liking. Original Development probably has devs taking the source vanilla Android and creating a ROM out of it.
Ahh. Thanks for that. I kept finding myself going back and forth to each forum. I couldn't find an explanation anywhere.
Android development is for roms based on stock - trickdroid, arhd etc.
original is for kernal development, aosp, aokp etc.

You must be using the xda mobile app. The difference is clearly explained in a sticky on the original development forum.
(the sticky is there precisely so we don't have to have a lot of threads like this but I digress)
In the full web browser experience, you will see that thread listed at the top above all the others. In the mobile app you have to click on the "stickies" tab to expose these. Just fyi..

Also I believe the original dev forum are using alpha and beta builds kernels and Roms, which most were projects that are work in progress I.e. the cyanogenmod, some hasn't received updates for long time, they may have been abandoned or obsolete.
On the other hand, the android development forum are housed with released roms, kernels and mods.
If this description is incorrect, please do correct me.
