Nexus S 4G binaries released!

**igotsanevo4g** · 12-16-2011, 06:48 PM

AOSP code has been released but without the binaries that include drivers and such, it cant match GB roms. BUT the binaries have been released! Expect fully functioning ICS roms soon! Yes this means working 4G.

Here's a link

I wish my computer could handle compiling ICS or id do it myself

Mine probably could even though it doesn't meet the "minimum" requirements but then again how many users do really?

I'm running a 3 month old Dual Core Win 7, 8 gig of RAM 650 gig HD..... So I'm real close to min specs...

Last time I tried installing Ubuntu and went to sync the source tree it never would happen so I gave up....

Yeah you have plenty. I'm running Ubuntu on a old P4 2.4ghz with 756mb ram. Its bad.

I wouldn't been surprised to see Google drop OTA for us this weekend... Its obvious they have everything they need together.... They just dropped it for the Nexus S so maybe were in line tomorrow or something for it....

We can hope. Google only said GSM though.

I think the developers have done an amazing job with what they have, but the kudos over at XDA are over the top. The typical comment is :"This is the bestest ROM ever, absolutely amazing,Just one thing: the phone doesn't work. Wifi doesn't work either. And, oh, GPS doesn't work. And it shuts down twice a day But, it is still the best. Ever."

Asus best buy special?

I think that I could do it too with my server at work, but I am sure somebody more experienced that me will have done it by now.

FWIW the server is a new SGI Cloud Server that has only 132 cores right now and 96gb memory. We are thinking of an upgrade, lol.

**Paul627g** · 12-17-2011, 08:55 AM

I think we will see some type of goodness this weekend I hope... AOSP from the oICS ROM is working on Android 4.0.3 with the binaries as we speak

No... A HP best buy special. Almost did the asus but refuse to buy a computer that has the video card built on the motherboard. I'm greedy like that. I don't like sharing memory.

Aosp said he's working on it

If anyone with the hardware would like to take a stab at it, I'd be glad to help them. Its pretty straightforward
