What's the status on an aosp rom for this device?(if any) Just wondering since the source code was just released.
All you have to do is look in the dev section....only code that was released was a kernel code
Its in progress. All the devs at the moment have other commitment to contend with atm

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.

Rezound has sense3.5. Unless they make a upgrade for it before HTC Ville release, we will be waiting and hoping LOL.

Hello
I am considering getting this phone. Just wondering why the Xperia Cyanogenmod team do not just contribute to the source code and then user just get updates through normal process like nightlies etc.
I personally never did like releases from CM and on XDA directly from the developer's when I had a Neo. I note that it allowed some stable releases to go through and then a weekly version released not long after with big bug fixes. It was frustrating.
Would it not be easy to have one simple way?
Please note I'm trying not to be critical just wondering. Thanks for your hard work.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
That's exactly the way its working. Code is being pushed to cm and when its stable enough it will get nightlies.

I'm confused. What do you mean?
I know code will get pushed to CM. I am just wondering if weeklies will still happen, (I hope not), once the first Official nightly has happened.
It was confusing when there would be CM releases and releases on the forum. Instead of a single release.

Hi everyone, I haven't really been keeping up with roms lately and was wondering if this phone is getting cm9 or 10 or is cm7 the last update?
Thanks !

From the looks of it, no. The problem is the kernel sources were released to late. No CM dev really has our phone so therfore hard for us to get it.
There is of course unofficial CM9, heck even CM10 Roms out there if you want to but no official yet.
To be honest I really doubt we will get them because Incredible S is on it's way to be a legacy phone prolly after new years. So unless we get support before that I would not get my hops up, but even so I doubt it.
ZaySk is apparently porting cm9 for us.

Hi Mark,
What would be so innovative about Viper ROM? Just in general? and why promotion of this ROM is focused so much on sense?

Best tweaks in an sense ROM
iirc, J4n87 (team venom boss) is the man behind the leedroid tweaks for sense 3.6 as well.
Its a sense rom, so its focus is sense You can change nearly everything, its like the AOKP of sense roms

Hey Mark,
Out of curiosity,
What is the actual difference when you say built from source and Built from RUU? Is it that you are building everything from scratch, when you say that ROM has been built from source?

Built from source generally refers to AOSP ROMs, meaning they're stock android like the nexus devices. With a source build you can include fixes and features and stuff. Some ROMs are ports of source builds for other devices are so are less tailored to our device and have a few bugs.
If something is built from an ruu it is sense based. HTC release their ROMs via ruus with sense in them, but technically that build them from source and add their framework and stuff. Everything is source based at one point, just a matter of how long ago and what has been added on top. But generally 'built from source' means it was built for the specific device with sources from aosp, aokp, cm or whatever.
That's at a very basic level

Nope, if those two roms are aosp, but i can assure you that sense rom can't be built from source

I wonder if it would be possible to build one's own "skin" like HTC Sense, Touchwiz, etc. It would be a lot of work, but interesting if done properly.

My question was asked to understand wheter or not ROM's from source are better by nature. But I'm not so sure anymore. I'm beginning to think that good ports may have better quality than ROM's from source.
google already upload android 4.2 source code... good news

Has HTC made any announcements on whether they are releasing source and supporting custom ROMs? Etc

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.
