what is the use of having android if you cannot call. Modem is must for this port to be successful.

I think the devs will release the alpha version for who ever wants it. Seeing the latest update, that wifi works via 'SD installation', I will surely try it. I would also give them feedback, so they can make it better. Because that is what we all want. If it will ever become a fully working port, I can not say. I am not a dev. But I do have full confidence that the devs will try to do so .
Good luck, I will wait patiently!
ics 4.0.4
i will ask one shot,

when it's done
ics 4.0.4
i dont know,all the people are say 18th june come or 19 th june come i saw mike thread
Rebellos already replied on the date comment, basically saying that development can take longer than expected. They ran into a bit of trouble, for instance Mike's Wave usb port problem. It took a couple days to be replaced/fixed. So the mentioned date of 18th of June couldn't be met anymore.
The most important thing to take from this, is that the release is near. As far as I know, it is more likely in terms of days than weeks. Just be patient.
ics 4.0.4
any one via directly contact mike?
i tweeted and via email until no answer
what do you want to know?
just be patient and let him work!

As he will be done he will post here first...Till then wait...Result will be sweet
Hundreds of people are asking Mike the same thing over and over again. I can imagine him going nuts from all that. Just let him be and let him work on it. When it's done, he will let us know. Easy as that.
I'm a bit pessimist in general. I doubt that we'll se a decent usable release of ICS on Wave. I mean to be used every day as a normal phone os. Yep i think that my (our) Wave will sadly die with Bada on it.
With months of development we still have nothing, just modem driver problems and no planned release in the near future.
PS: of course i'd love this project and iwould donate as many others for a fully working release asap.
"Usable" can be different for everyone. If the port lags a bit, I don't mind. If I can't call, bit of a downer, but who still calls these days...? The most important things for me are whatsapp and skype. When they work via wifi, I'm already satisfied.

Dunno where you live actually, but here in Italy we still call lol
Anyway lag + calls and apps would be great. In the end bada lags at least on my S8500.
I know it's preferable to call, but if you can send texts, you can get the message across.

I think if modem will not work then how could any buddy send a Text ???
its not possible...
in the alpha release modem will not work, I'm 100% sure
maybe in a future beta, but we'll must wait probably a very long time, probably will never happen
it's very difficult to write a driver from garbage... Rebellos with Jetdroid guys have a hard work to do...
modem will never work. The same will happen as it was in Froyo 2.2. I have no more hope. Wait for 1 year and nothing has happened. On ICS again waiting very long time and nothing from this. When will come the alpha or beta version out, I'll probably have another phone

Hi there
this is sort of ROM development related, just so happens that the cook is HTC!
just got off the phone with a technical support specialist at HTC and been told that an update to the phone is imminent
just thought i'd give everyone a heads up
Yes, I also recently asked HTC support about update and they said new ROM is going to be released in nearest weeks.
Good news for us, less good news for the ROM cookers.
Now I can't wait for two things, the new Elite RC3 and the new ROM by HTC .
Thanks for the update duke_stix!
yes but what updates is it going to bring maybe winmo 6.5
yeah and wich one gonna be Windows Mobile 7 ??? that also a good quastion we should ask Microsoft are't we???
Doubt that...it'll prob be something we wont even notice!
I don't know what to say.. to another user some guy from HTC costumer service said that a new ROM will be released in december. December passed and no ROM released.. So..
i guess this is some sort of strategy. htc says "we will be releasing a new rom in very short time". And everyone becomes "oh ok then i can live with my problems on my htc pro now, as there ll be a new rom soon." and customer is now happy.

today i phoned htc europe support because i have to return my phone for repairing the g-sensor; by the way i asked if there is also a solution for the gps-lag and he told me that a new rom will come out in the next weeks (there are on testing it actually) and gps will be part of it; i don´t want to comment this statement but maybe a really solution will come ? - lets keep our fingers crossed

Wait and see
By the way

Hmm, I don't believe that nobody from this forum is not on the short list beta users ...
Good man, share with others !!! OEM is enough
Yay! Maybe finally due to a large number of customer complaints about the GPS, and the general lethargic nature of the phone (including music skipping, etc) HTC have decided to fix things. (Wouldn't hold my breath though)
I have called HTC today again to complain about the GPS and other things.
The specialist with whom i talked said to me: A new rom will be available for the EU soon. At the end of februari with fixed GPS. So let's wait ...

yea, they are going to release a new ROM with all the GPS fixes that the great chefs at XDA discovered. We know they pay attention to the forums here, why put in the RnD when all you have to do is see what we did to fix our phones, and implement it
The real reason is probably that Iphone takes too large market share,

So it was supposed to be "late december" then "january" and now "end of february"....
Well we can't be surprised with lack of support from HTC; it's always been like this. They have a line-up of 25 new phones appearing in 2009. How much time can they allocate to support post-sales problems for each model? Maybe one working day for each model?
well just my 2 cents. i was at att the other day and i saw a guy there from att head quarters testing wm7 in my area. my buddy works there and said they have been testing for a while. i did see it with my own eyes. looks totally different.
wm7 or 6.5?
Special thanks to Miniassasin23 for doing the testing. I don't have a sim card to test with, and when i test my stuff it often results in my devices being inoperable for long periods of time, and they normally aren't spares either. Utter chaos....

That is the correspondence, post the pictures in a reply to this thread if you want Miniassasin I'd like to see them. Once again thanks, and I'll send you what should be a much more stable kernel that I built last night as soon as you give me an e-mail.
What does this mean now? For anyone who has been wanting to jump ship with their photon, it means you should soon be able to. An alpha release will be posted as soon as I pump a build out that I feel is stable enough (and works well enough) to responsibly distribute. I did a build last night that is untested currently, so if it tests well, the alpha release could be available within 24-48 hours on these boards.
The recommended release will be more for the devs then for the users as it will basically be a demonstration that the GSM code has been isolated and is portable, mine will be the latest stock kernel with GSM unlocked, but I intend to release it with a patch for devs to use to add that functionality to any of their non-stock kernels.
Do you have any proof other then a forum post?
This looks like pure troll.
I can test ..I have an att sim card not activated and I'm on cm7.let me know
I also have a T-Mobile sim card not activated

just release what you have put together so the rest of the devs can collaborate and work together.. many can/will test this and help you debug it.
yes, maybe we'll get some of our lost members back like kennypow3rs to return.

while i havent seen his work firsthand, i can vouch that hes posted around on the forums asking about kernel source, and been in the irc channel talking to me about stuff.....
but i do agree that the release thread shoulda been in dev section while this... shoulda been general

Congrats on this, I have official sprint documents stating the radio is blocking us carriers. So once this is out that is great. Also we need some github love on this so I can spread that code to every project.

Awesome news, but do try to release source as soon as possible, I'm sure Joker and other devs here wouldn't mind helping out or at least taking a look.
So you need to be on CM7 or CM9 to get this working???
I' friggin confused.

You should really take another one and blip or blur your IMEI tho bro. You don't want that falling into the wrong hands if you know what I mean. User or network administrator alike...
Good to know. Now I can get out of Sprint contact, and keep my MoPho.
With HSPA+, I won't even care about Wimax being unlocked as it's just as fast.
So does this flash the radios or something that needs to be implemented into every ROM?

I have no clue why or who ever in Samsung development messed this up, but when you stream flash videos in full screen the notification does not auto hide. To me this is completely unacceptable as it ruins the possibility of "full screen" and it can actually damage the oled in these phones.
I think this fix should be a MUST for any developer currently making rooms for this phone. The only from currently that I know of that fixes it is Cyanogen.. but I do want a stable ICS and oh boy can't we all dream of a perfect aosp from... dreams of super fast clean friendly user experience...

Why be a dev if your goal is half ass roms? The only thing I'm wondering is why has this not been addressed by the community? Why is this still "OK" and why are trolls immediately the only ones present in this forum?
There's a Q&A for ya..
Its funny how you think my suggestion is un warranted. I just desperately want to ruin my phone with burn in right?
It's not your suggestion, it's your attitude.

AS said above, it looks like your are running ICS which is in beta and has not been officially released, you are complaining about an unfinished, unofficially released BETA rom.
You may need some time of reflection and a lot of reading to understand what you are doing......
Why be a dev if your goal is half ass roms?
You answer your question yourself why build a rom based on a half assed buggy beta release .
Put in a very simple way . Why waste time on a buggy beta build that may be very different come release day .
When ICS is released and if a dev thinks its worth fixing your problem i am sure they will .
jje
OK it sounds like no one understood , I will attempt to explain this better. This is NOT an ICS problem this problem is with EVERY rom including stock update strait from Kies. I went as far as contacting Samsung to get a fix, but as you can see in my profile I live in the US and the US Samsung will not help me with my UK phone. Why everything between us is so divided beats me but still the issue remains.
As I stated currently the only rom that fixes it is Cyanogen but just as JJ stated why use a buggy beta when the release will be much different/better. Also I am currently running ICS and have not encountered a single bug. Everything works perfect except for Samsung's stupid attempt to burn in my screen. I don't know about everyone else but I paid $580 for this phone and the last thing I want is a permanent" 3g" on my screen...

Then give us more information. Saying that streaming videos don't go full screen is no where near enough. What ROM, website, browser etc are you using because the last time I tried this (Not long after the S2 was released) it worked just fine. I tried a 720p video from megaupload and it went full screen just fine. Same with youtube/youtube app. Give more information, not attitude. Also, i'd wager than there is zero chance of your display burning in a 3G icon. Perhaps the full notification bar if you use MIUI/a white or light theme but I highly doubt the majority of people will experience any burn in, never mind such a small specific burn in.
Fair enough.. more info. I usually run completely stock and decided to play around with ics. A main site I stream with is twitch.TV (I am a big starcraft2 player and use the pro streams to get better) while I'm at work I watch for hours sometimes 7 hours straight. This WILL cause burn in.
When the problem occurs:
Watching ANY true flash video online(not YouTube app) while in full screen mode in any browser or Rom besides cyanogen.
If you don't believe me test it yourself. Go to twitch.TV pick a stream let the video load and click the full screen button. If you have a rom that the notification bar disappears let me know and you won't hear.me "moan" anymore.
Or maybe one of you super nice Brits can call UK Samsung and get an official fix. The number is 08702420303.

Download the diff, check for relevant changes (there's not many for fullscreen) and mod your own browser. Before you ask, I'm not going to hold your hand on this one, and am not willing to do it for you either (I don't use an ICS ROM).
Not asking for any hand holding or hand outs for that matter.. one last question can it be done completely from the phone?
Actually nvm that browser mod will not work with ics. Even states in that post "should be comparable with 2.3.x roms.

Sure it will, you just have to be willing to put in some work. Namely, as I already said, downloading the diff, checking for relevant changes (I think there's only two changes relating to full screen) and getting them into your Browser.apk. You're probably going to need to do some reading.
Judging by this part of your post:

anyone working on a stock gb or asop rom for this device?

That actually has nothing to do with what the thread was created for.

I doubt anyone will bother with AOSP GB, most people seem to be waiting to do ICS roms, which is what this device should have come with anyway.
Most will be waiting to dev ics? That's honestly the most bs answer I've ever received on this site in my life. That's like saying they are going to develop yellow snow in hell but waiting for it to snow....

Assume what you will, but if I were a developer and I had any inkling that an OS update was on the horizon for the phone I'm using, I'd probably opt to not develop for an OS that will be obsolete, since it's likely that no one would even use the ROM once ICS is out.
In other words, if I were a developer, I'd wait for ICS too.

Rom devs need source code to work from.
Alot of what you see going on right now is piddly because without source code, not much can be done (based on my limited understanding of how this all works).
Not to discount the one or two roms out there now, its a good start but Samsung needs to give up the goods.

I honestly wish someone would put out a cm7 version for our notes to gives us something better than stock at least until ics comes out, not saying that saurom and tpc aren't nice and trust me I'm pretty happy with saurom rom in my note, but coming from my htc hd2 that had dozens of roms to choose from , and coming from cm9 before I got my note , kinda leaves me hoping for just a bit more rom developing that we have at the moment, if I didnt work 50+ hours a week and had kids to take care of I would take a crack at my own rom but just don't have the time for that level of development.

Has anyone flashed this?
Reports?
I flashed it. Seems to work pretty well. I don't have a SIM to test mobile data but WiFi works fine. The only issue I have is that no matter what widget I put on any homescreen using stock or nova they are gone after my next reboot.

Because it was not fully developed yet. I sent @invisiblek a VK810 to get CM12 going on this device and he/we were trying to work out some of the remaining issues before posting it. Life got too busy for me so had very little time to work on the vk810. @invisiblek basically got this going himself. Hoping to have radio issue resolved next time I get a chance to play on this.

I'm not trying to start anything here. I kind of assumed everyone knew that the CM12.1 repos were InvisibleK's. Forked from NGVincent's github, which was forked from upstream CM11 V500 official. I'm not trying to take credit for anyone else's work. I'm just trying to get the ROM into people's hands. That's how open source works. you write something, you release it. But the average user (yes, even here on XDA) does not use Linux, much less knows how to build a ROM. It's not like i'm trying to take credit for anyone else's work
Thanks goes out to everyone else who worked on this, PaperWastage, CyanogenMod Team, TheRodeWarrior, DrGravy, etc. and anyone else I've missed.

I'm sorry if I misunderstood, but with the amount of work InvisibleK does for CM, I assumed he was part of CM Team. I'm sorry if this is not the case.
As we are all aware, GPS and 4G do not work due to some issues with the RIL. I've looked into it. NGVincent looked into it. InivisibleK looked into it. nobody has it working because the modem is a proprietary blob that no other CM supported device uses (except for the Droid Maxx HD, but it uses the CDMA side so still not of much use to us). To be completely honest, I doubt it's ever going to get fixed until some other pure LTE device that uses the msm8960 gets a GooglePlay Edition. either that, or someone with a whole lot more free time and talent than any of us have sits down and reverse engineers the RIL from the stock ROM. Probably not gonna happen...
The fact of the matter is, that while having working data would be nice (and certainly the last major hurdle to get over before official CM status can be achieved), it's hardly a deal breaker. To be honest, on my tablet I could care less. I only ever use it in places I have WiFi anyway (work/home). We've been using a 4G-less CM11 ROM for at least as long as I've been developing for this tablet, and nobody seemed to have any complaints about it. Only positive things to say.
and for the record, it's come to my attention that semi-nightly builds are available here at http://www.invisiblek.org/roms/cm-12.1/vk810/
credit where due...
