Finally part 2 !!

---

ok folks all im going to say is check out the image attached

and no its not a joke i do actualyl have this running on my streak. stock android 2.2 froyo - using dells eclair kernel source, as you can see its not usable (no wifi/bt/phone etc which we expected). working on gettign at least 3g going now.

great to see evidence this thing is moving if we wait on dell it wont happen for ages

but is 2.2 froyo based on the same kernnell as 2.1?

not really but dells kernel is a mash up or alot of differnet kernels including froyos

its a different kernel. there is 2.1 eclair and the new froyo 2.2. Dell made their own 2.1 Eclair development platform and drivers and some additions to the kernel to support the hardware. Most other company's use the android Eclipse developer platform.
some great enhancements in the 2.2 kernel is the support for the flash-light (the leds on the back, not this not-wanted screen lighters) , a speedboost of nearly 10% in some cases and a new support library for social networking.

some info on new stuff added http://developer.android.com/sdk/and...ighlights.html

edit: did i allmost forget the flash 10.1 support.
more edit: 2.1 official seems to come out in a few weeks up till december. 2.2 scheduled for februari

yup add a boot time of about 10 seconds too and its is SILLY fast running, smooth as silk

awesome!

Now what can we do to help? also is it just you work on this or others pitching in?

and if you don't mind, can you write up a guide or is it similar to the other devices of how to build AOSP?

I'm trying to learn but dont have much programming and dev background so its like starting from scratch!
