cm9/10 - HTC Incredible S

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.

There was a source build of cm10 in development like last week posted by aero Evan from the droid incredible 2 section

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.

The one i'm on is pretty good though I agree one made for our device would be better.

That ROM gives me the hspa people I have with many roms, terrible speeds.
So much that speed rest can't even find a network and the market has no pictures.
Also "based on" does not mean official... I.E. a movie being "based on a true story" is not the same as a true story
i think he means officially for Incredible S, and not Desire S
Hopefully won't be long official sense 3.0 will be nice
cant even wait anymore to read that Inc S owners are getting 3.0 update too..

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.

False. AFAIK, all resources that would be used to port MIUI are being used to port AOSP instead. Once that is done, porting MIUI is trivial.

MIUI has alot of parts that you can install individually. Like their file explorer is great. Move the apps people have posting from MIUI for non MIUI roms to /system/app and it should work
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1523691 - file explorer
There are 2 options for MIUI,
1. The AOSP route which is the traditional way toget MIUI, or
2. The way that it works on the sensation using sense as a base.
We are Lacking the AOSP port to the holiday and myself completely lacking the ability to help on the AOSP project, I am working on porting the sense based MIUI myself.
Nothing to report on though, this stuff is crazy difficult when your a n00b
ok so can the files from synergye's aosp be used to port miui from any other s3 device ?
and does anyone have a plan of porting cm9 or aokp for the vivid (maybe using synergye's aosp) ?
is this even possible
i can try doing that but i am afraid of a hard brick !

Nobody is working on MIUI. Synergye is the one you want to donate to for the development on AOSP.
So close we can almost taste it. synergye has 3.0.30 AOSP kernel working, meaning we will have a fully working AOSP ROM very soon. I will be working on MIUI when the time comes.
Meh. I have miui on every android device. If I spend money I would rather spend it on what I like.

I also want to get CM9 to our device.. I really want to help here, but I don't have a lo of knowledge of rom development.
But I developed some Android apps and I know how to programm java..
So can anybody tell me what I would have to do If I want to get CM9 to our Incredible S?
Can I compile CM9 from source? Or isn't that possible because we don't have an official cm9 yet?
Please help me out a little bit..
Or do you have any tutorials that would help me getting started?
CM9 Is out
Cm9 is now out and soon I think the jelly bean port will be possible maybe.
Desire S have a port lying around but i heard one of the guys had a brick so if you are doing anything please be careful ..

why the hell do they wait for kernel source, old devices that have no ics source whatsoever have official cm9 nightlies (example GT-P1000)
Presumably they don't need it, either their drivers are open source or are the same as another device which does have source. HTC deliberately remove and obfusticate, so each source is specific to one device

Will we ever get Jelly Bean?

There are a decent number of ICS ROM's for the Incredible S but the only stock ICS ROM's are Playground ICS(Development has been stopped) and IceColdSandwich( No new updates for about a month). There are quite a few Sense 4 ROM's as well but honestly after using stock, I can't go back to Sense.
Official support for CM9 is a long way off, so I don't expect CM10 by this year
I wonder if any dev has started working to port JellyBean onto our device?
Desire HD has 4.1 so likelly IncS will do too..
