Great progress! I'll make sure to subscribe to see the progress as it develops more :D When it becomes stable I'll flash. Good luck :)

Installing now!! very excited!! :D

VERY freaking cool!! Its very slow, and everything is really small, icons, letter, etc.. and no working internet connection. But besides that, its SWEET to be playing with it this early. ESPECIALLY on my PHONE!! :D

Don't forget: Spare Parts -> Font Size: Extremely Large or w/e it's called. :)

Had a Nexus One port done a day after my DHD port but I couldn't find anyone to test it so it's now just residing in a folder all on its own. I decided not to release it anyway due to the small screen-realestate X dpi.

I was about to do ports to other tablets (Galaxy Tab) but since ODIN/Heimdall is so vastly different than RUU, I gave up.

Good luck on your endeavors, man! Just don't try to switch out the music.apk with another music player to try to gain sound like a certain other guy who wanted to take the build further on a certain phone. :p

Gave it a shot, had a play and took a few screenshots. Good work, but i'm convinced now, honeycomb is for tablets :D

I like that stuff like this gets done for no other reason than we can.

This is a great holdover until Xoom comes out for development. So much better performance than the emulator. Has anyone gotten wifi working?

But the nexus one did ship with honeycomb? Are they even going to try and make this for the nexus s?

No, it didn't. I don't get martin0285's comment either. :)

A good developer with a Nexus S can probably port this to the Nexus S, but I think most developers are going to wait until the first non-SDK dumps are available.
That aside, I don't think Honeycomb is really suited to run on a phone. But that doesn't mean it's no fun to try.

    Honeycomb SDK port to N1 alpha 3

    Credits goes to :
    • Pershoot's Kernel 2.6.35.11 – OC-UV-BTN-AUD-RAM-NEON_FP
    • chhaggerty and NuroSlam for the recompiled "honeycomb" su
    • RiotMAC for the density hack (which made my previous work worth sharing)
    • M..N for the libinput.so TC fix
    • DJ_Steeve for 3d libs, data and oriention fix
    • Coolexe for pointing the link to an almost fully working gapps on Honeycomb
    If any DEVs are interested in getting more things to work for the Nexus One let me know. The nook community did fix a lot of things from the SDK for their device it's impressive but possible

    Working :
    • 3d acceleration (still a few glitches)
    • Charging led
    • Data
    • Flash led
    • Orientation sensors
    • SMS (sdk sms application wont show what you type as a message but still send and receive properly)
    • Trackball notifications

    Not working :
    • Audio
    • Bluetooth
    • Calls
    • Wifi
    • etc etc etc... :)

    Change log :
    [02/20/2011] Honeycomb Preview SDK port alpha
    • First preview SDK port to Nexus One
    [02/24/2011] Honeycomb Full SDK port alpha
    • First Full SDK port to Nexus One
    [02/24/2011] Honeycomb Full SDK port alpha 1
    • Fixed wallpapers and adb logcat loop oom error
    [02/24/2011] Honeycomb Full SDK port alpha 2
    • Added 3D acceleration drivers and libraries
    [02/27/2011] Honeycomb Full SDK port alpha 3
    • Data and orientation fix
    • Flashing LED (via Torch)
    • Can now be overclocked

    I still made some additions :
    • Rooted
    • Added busybox
    • Added Filemanager
    • QuickBoot for reboot options
    • SetCPU
    • Terminal emulator
    • Torch

    Note : if you loose TouchScreen simply change phone screen orientation it will fix the issue.

    Download :

    Full SDK port alpha 3 : Honeycomb_fullSDK_N1_alpha_3-signed.zip

    Sdk port howto

    I'm having TONS of private messages on how to port the sdk to other devices.

    Well here is the only thing that was required for me to do in order to have a working boot.img :

    1. Dump your current working boot.img
    2. Unpack it
    3. Uncompress boot.img-ramdisk.gz
    4. ADD the dnsproxy line in init.rc for netd daemon service
      Code:
      service netd /system/bin/netd
          socket netd stream 0660 root system
          socket dnsproxyd stream 0660 root inet  <----
    5. Recompress edited ramdisk
    6. Create your new boot.img

    Swap the boot.img in the update.zip and it should work. If u have an instruction error(0) while flashing you'll have to change the updater binary in META-INF/ for one that is compiled for your ARM version.

    That was for SDK preview, I had to do alot of modifications with the full SDK. The idea is still the same tho, compare the SDK ramdisk with yours and edits ;)

    If you can't dump / unpack / repack a boot.img then you CAN'T port the SDK but you CAN LEARN HOW with this WIKI

    Here is a very quick, short, and simple video I did just showing that this does indeed work.
