[Kernel Source]

So I guess Htc/VZ decided to release the source: http://member.america.htc.com/download/RomCode/Source_and_Binaries/incrediblec_cc1c2268.tar.bz2

good luck.

We have been down this road before with several other devices...
HTC has ALWAYS released the source code....within a few months or so.
You can email all you want, but your going to get generic responses, and its going to be released anyways.
The phone is only available for pre-order and its not even the 29th yet...so give them sometime.
Cheers!

Will having the kernel source for the Incredible make rooting the device easier because of the potential for "work arounds".
From what Paul is saying over at Modaco, it seems HTC is going out of their way to make the Desire and Incredible "more secure"... which means locking down bootloader, kernel, etc. More of a pain for rooting... agh!

Glad to see you getting involved...
We blasted HTC before with thousands of emails, and even got News sources involved, but since all that they have always released the source codes within a few months or so.

Droid Eris was released on 11/6/09; kernel source code is still not released.

I should have been more clear. I was referring too 2.1, but since that's not technically released on the eris yet, my whole post is wrong.
Nothing to see here, move along!

LOL...good job catching yourself

My my I think it worked. Congrats!!

Its a marketing strategy because they know people are going to mod it anyway, so this way if people mod it, they are more inclined to stay with the device and HTC.

question about vz and sprint 4.2.2

so since vz has the 4.2.2. and is cdma, would it be save to assume it would be a port to sprint or do we still have to wait until sprint releases?

Even if it cant, Jason Mackenzie of HTC claims the company wants to release 4.3 by the end of September on all variants (not just dev edition) so it wont be too much longer.

So no disrespect but in all the HTC statements I've seen I have only read that they "hope" or "plan" to have it out before the end of September and one critical piece of info was never said.... September of what year...
Sorry but I am still hopeful that the Vzn release will give the devs what they need to at least move the Sprint device forward with updated roms just in case there are "delays"...

Yeah, since the VZW phone drops today, I'm wondering how long (rather, how quick) it will be before the devs get a hold of it and rip out the source! It's days like this that make me wish I had the time and knowledge for coding.

KitKat Release Today or Tomorrow

This looks promising...
http://www.androidauthority.com/and...e-date-october-25-26-go-launcher-says-286310/
The Tweet says that we will see an announcement today or tomorrow. And their FB posts explains that they know this because they received an invite. o.0
We obviously have to take any rumour with a grain of salt but personally, I don't see why Go Launcher would want to fabricate this story as they would royally piss off a good amount of their customers if they were found to be lying.
Will update the post with the actual article in a bit. Currently on the train with restricted Wi-Fi access!
UPDATE: GO Launcher lied. Please do not buy/install any of their apps to teach these ass**les not to mess with the public. Hopefully Google Experience Launcher ruins them.

Here is a screen of their facebook post

If you think you are the first to post something you need to step back, take a breath and then realize you probably are not and it has already been posted in the appropriate thread. The one with every other rumored date imaginable.
As far as significant, nothing is significant unless Google said so.

Thought KitKat was coming on October 28th along with Google Nexus 5.
Isnt that the case

Again that can only be for tablets and not for N5.

That's only for tablets. Nexus 5 and other nexus devices will get lollipop in 'the following weeks'

*Design is a major focus for*Lollipop—the latest version of Android—which begins to roll out today.

As exciting as it is, I wanna see them post the source asap so our favorite devs can take a crack at this.

Yeah I know I'm wanting it and refreshing the dev page in case the source gets released.

It's cool either way, as long as it doesn't take 2 months or some'n than I can wait a couple of weeks. In such events like these, I'm glad that I chose to buy Nexus 5 instead of the usual Samsung/HTC as I did in the past.

Use the version you develop. Clearly that doesn't exist yet

Same thing every android release. It'll be out after the official release, and source code drops. Don't know how long it will take, but it'll get there. We had a very long wait for 5.0 because of massive changes, not to mention that every time he got it working on one dev version, it was broken as heck on the next dev version, so we just have to wait and see. Hope that explains it well enough. Better than a "When it's ready", or "none" answer everyone always gives.

The Nexus images are now live so I would guess the source won't be far behind it. Can someone comment on the number of changes to ART compared to Lollipop. From the surface it seems that Marshmallow should be 5.2 and not 6.0 but maybe all the changes are under the hood.

It is coming:
rovo89:
"In framework version 74, I have fixed some more incompatibilities which could lead to bootloops or crashes. I assume that most of these crash logs contained the string "Incompatible set properties", which is actually a consequence of previous method verification errors. It's hard to say which ROMs and devices were affected - but flashing the new version shouldn't hurt even if everything looks fine with older versions. If you do notice any issues and are sure that it's not caused by yourself, you have higher chances of getting them fixed if you open a detailed GitHub issue (usually I will need at least a full logcat).
I won't be able to work on Xposed for the next 2-3 weeks - no time for development, support or questions at all. If the rumors I have read are right, I should be ready just in time to start porting Xposed to M."

Remember, the reason why it took so long for an official version for android 5.0 was because lollipop uses ART environment and xposed whas always made for dalvik originally.
So I think it will take less time now.

Really looking forward to having Xposed available on Marshmallow. Donated 5 euros to the cause. :good:

I hope he's serious about the shorter timeframe.... I'm not sure how art differs.... He claims it's simpler than dalvik so... Just keep us nexus owners updated please. If this thread is what to watch.... Great. Otherwise link please.

I haven't been able to find it, only snarky comments from users here about how its obviously not done. I have checked all the stickeys in this forum as well as the development one...
I doubt you will get much info on progress, as users tend to hold any claims against developers... But I would have though there would be something official saying "its in progress" to try and help stop the inquiries.
Oh well, will be a nice surprise when it drops.
