Google Releases Honeycomb Code!
by Swapnil Bhartiya 15 Nov '11

15 Nov '11

While everyone is talking about Android 4.0 code, what is worth mentioning is that Google has also released source code of Honeycomb as well. Despite Google's repeated clarification that holding back Honeycomb code was not intended to make it close source but to stop OEMs from starting to put it on their devices. Honeycomb was a work-around to put Android on the tablets while Google works on Android 4.0. But now Google has released the source code for honeycomb as well. Queru writes in his post, "This release includes the full history of the Android source code tree, which naturally includes all the source code for the Honeycomb releases. However, since Honeycomb was a little incomplete, we want everyone to focus on Ice Cream Sandwich. So, we haven't created any tags that correspond to the Honeycomb releases (even though the changes are present in the history.) Read here: http://www.muktware.com/news/2937 Swapnil Bhartiya

Android IceCream sandwich Source Code released
by Siji Sunny 15 Nov '11

15 Nov '11

*Announced by Jean-Baptiste Queru* Hi! We just released a bit of code we thought this group might be interested in. Over at our Android Open-Source Project git servers, the source code for Android version 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich) is now available. Here's how to get it:Follow the instructions at http://source.android.com/source/downloading.htmlCheck<http://www.google.com/url?sa=D&q=http://source.android.com/source/downloadi…>out the 'ics-release' branch:repo init -u https://android.googlesource.com/platform/manifest<http://www.google.com/url?sa=D&q=https://android.googlesource.com/platform/…>-b android-4.0.1_r1 That's it! However since this is a large push, please be aware that it will take some time to complete. If you sync before it's done, you'll get an incomplete copy that you won't be able to use, so please wait for us to give the all-clear before you sync. This is actually the source code for version 4.0.1 of Android, which is the specific version that will ship on the Galaxy Nexus, the first Android 4.0 device. In the source tree, you will find a device build target named "full_maguro" that you can use to build a system image for Galaxy Nexus. Build configurations for other devices will come later. Unfortunately we still don't have our Gerrit code review servers back online. That remains our top priority though, and we hope to have them back soon. This release includes the full history of the Android source code tree, which naturally includes all the source code for the Honeycomb releases. However, since Honeycomb was a little incomplete, we want everyone to focus on Ice Cream Sandwich. So, we haven't created any tags that correspond to the Honeycomb releases (even though the changes are present in the history.) JBQ, on behalf of the AOSP team. -- Jean-Baptiste M.
