INTRO
Hey everyone. I have been at it for *insert days since 2/24/12* days strait and I finally got a working Device tree up and running. This is not meant for use yet. Very buggy and needs lots of work. But its a start. This is my own device + vendor tree. I started from scratch. (see Thanks for some details.)

INFO
This is a work in progress. dont ask for ETAs.
THIS IS A DEVELOPMENT THREAD! DONT SPAM THIS TREAD. I WOULD LIKE TO GET SOMETHING DONE HERE. KEEP YOUR BICKERING TO THE GENERAL SECTION. I WILL NOT TOLERATE UNNECESSARY COMMENTS

CONTRIBUTE!
Remember this is an open project. post here or pm me if you have any contributions to the project. im sure we all would like cm9 running on our devices with a tree + kernel available to everyone! lets make this a team effort. lets put everything else behind us and get a good, stable, source-built rom for our tablet

WORKING
boots
3D acceleration
2D acceleration
touchscreen
usb input
task switcher
no green overlay

Known issues/Broken
WIFI
Bluetooth
audio (i think i found a fix. havent implemented yet)
sensors
camera - we have drivers its just a mater of implementing them

THANKS!
seraphimserapis - some base config stuff (not many of you may know him but he was a huge part in the early days of the iconia)
blazingwolf - reading lots of your posts. helped with base vendor config. kernel
RaYmAn - touchscreen fix in kernel
cyanogenmod - source lulz
if im missing someone tell me. I dont want to leave anyone out on this.

Development stuff

INFO
So I figure this will be much easier once acer releases the kernel source for ICS. but for now im working off of the HC source. we can do our best.

In the device tree local-extract-files.sh and extract-files.sh are both incomplete. its easy to finish i just use my own vendor folder and change it as i go. ill fix them later.

most of my updates are posted in the news box at the top of the page. its easier to update and more noticeable.

SOURCE
Kernel: https://github.com/gh123man/Picasso-ICS-kernel-2.6.36.3
device tree: https://github.com/gh123man/device_acer_picasso
vendor tree: https://github.com/gh123man/vendor_acer_picasso

Did you try to use ics stock kernel ?
It may help until ICS kernel sources are released.

so far i have only used the stock acer 3.2 kernel with the touch screen fix... ill look into it if i can. ive been tinkering around with other kernels with no results as of yet. i am also trying to play with the a200 sources you posted but im getting a bunch of compile errors.

Sweet, going to keep an eye on this. How can I help out?

best thing you can do is compile the device tree. install it on your device. and start fixing problems. ill post a guide if anyone would like on how to do a basic compile.

apapousek · Feb 29, 2012

I'm glad to see an open ICS dev branch for our Iconia. I'm not too good at developing, but I have plenty of server space if you need an image mirror.

manoo2 · Feb 29, 2012

try fixing the issues using thors asop ics

Yes Please a guide will be nice and any advise as well.

ProTekk · Feb 29, 2012

Hey, been working on something similar as well. May be able to help with some issues you have. Give me a shout via PM or hop on IRC on freenode in the #teamkang channel

No worries. I hate seeing people asking for eta, or saying "i'm a blonde lol" in dev threads. The Development sections is for developoment.. kind've obvious. I'm not too handy with compiling Android, but I do love compiling kernels, though. If you want, I'll monkey around with a couple configs.

@apapousek yeah that comment was directed at someone who changed their post... i quoted you by mistake for that I am sorry

. feel free, actually please, monkey with everything!

@everyone repos updated, added decoders and stuff. re-arranged stuff in device and vendor. added a working early build if you want to play with it. changed the working/broken with some more details, still cant get wifi working...

Alright. 2 seconds, and I'm out. You won't see me comment here again. Thank you for reading that and realizing you misquoted. I read through that response multiple times and I was like.... What???? That's a bit over the top for offering server space.. Turns out your pretty nice.

Next, thank you doing this. Very nice to see so much development. This is awesome!!!!

Good luck with finals.

*gone like a ghost.*

hey everyone, you may be wondering where i have been. well i finished finals and came out alive, went on a ski trip where google happened to have 600 employ's on a trip, so that was really cool. and while all of this has been going on i have not missed a day of working on this project. now that i have been home for a few days i have been able to crank out some work.

Graphics driver fixed, no more crashes. WORKING HW ACCELERATION

gallery is now fixed because of this.
and best of all... NO GREEN OVERLAY

only issue is a bad sleep of death issue... time to start digging.
ill push updates to the repos soon if anyone wants to play with it.

+ thanks to blazingwolf for a kick in the right direction.

EDIT:
repos have been updated with the graphics changes,
current priority list:
-Sleep of death
-wifi
-sensors/audio (whichever i get to first)
-iron out storage issues (if there are any)
-camera
-am i missing anything???

Try working or speaking with the masters behind flexrom.... looks/sounds like they got the SoD ironed out pretty well.... although few still report it.

It may work, but it would be better to fix it in the source rather than applying a binary patch.
Flexrom ( a good rom, overall ) = modification of a leak
This ( a work in progress ) = built from source

Zatta · Mar 26, 2012

Hey, don't think nobody is interested in your project! I'll keep an eye on it, being an early adapter since cm7 started for the Samsung Galaxy S. I hope to see this grow like a banana!
