really awesome on birds part. He's quite awesome... i have a feeling this is some ways away though (kinda like FROYO)... he doesn't have a whole team like many devs. anyone know if he's doing this alone or if he's workin with JT and/or adrenelyn?

Wow, this is awesome news, even if it is a ways away. I've been following another thread for a while, hoping that something would pop up for the fascinate, but so far, nothing: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=877800

Well, getting 2.3 would make up for the whole 2.2 debacle, to say the least.

I think this is off JT's RIL work and the general SGS port work by codeworkx, coolya, et al.

The latter are still hacking away at Gingerbread/CM7 for the GSM variants. Currently missing compass, 2g/3g toggle (not applicable for us), non-HQ youtube playback, camera, and various install package stuff. Yeah, that's pretty close to functional, so if birdman has caught up he could definitely beat Samsung's Froyo to release.

JT, Birdman, and Kaos are all working on this. I'm not sure about Adrynalyne.

gingerbread on the fascinate before sammy puts out froyo, hell yeah.

Not to be that guy, but this is kind of old news...

As recently overheard on irc:

http : // tinyurl . com / 47hdql8 < -- Google I/O donation funds (cause some of you asked)

Birdman is trying to go to Google I/O in March.. If anyone wants to help..

That link is to paypal.

No, you're right. Adrynalyne is busy fixing your phone for you...

But he is bringing you roms, fixes, and kernels. Better question is what does he not do...

As Baseband Version number is unknown means RIL is Completly broken as of now so no 3G is Working i guess and this is right section

 

[obededom]

Athis is right section

I guess not. It got moved


my point was there is no build here, no link to anything, just info that your average XDA contributor cant really help with (radio interface issues). I think that's why it belongs in general. I can see why you would think it belongs in development, part of me agrees with you. either way, not a big deal to me.

When I said "wrong forum" it was slightly tongue-in-cheek though, about every third new thread in "development" is really not development and somebody says "wrong forum" it's become kind of a running joke. again, I meant no disrespect to you or anyone else.

point is we are very fortunate to have Bird working on this. and I'm sure we are all anxiously awaiting a test build.

 

[hetaldp]

Any way too much excited to see more and more things to come

Looks like the RIL may not be much of an issue
