Android 2.2

[Guest uapo7]

Android 2.2 is coming soon. And we are waiting official Android 2.1. So if Acer dont relase 2.2 upgrade to Liquid, can developers port it to Liquid? I think, that will be very very nice, if they can.

To be independant from Acer (that's what you ask I guess) we need kernel source/config and specific hardware dependant libraries to compile AOSP. I asked this question before but until today I have not seen anyone succesfully compile AOSP (or any other derivation) for Liquid.

@Behnaam: did you make any progress on this?

Usually latest Android builds are launched exclusive with a device.

1.5 -> Hero

2.0 -> Droid/Milestone

And I heard that Dell's Aero will be getting 2.2 first.

I'm not behnaam, but the only person I saw, who claimed that he compared AOSP for Liquid was Angio...

As far as I remember behnaam tried to compile CM for Liquid

Than he cooperated with maxisma and tried to make AOSP, but they bricked they Liquids and needed to restore some files with help of behnaam's friend

I think the Nexus One will get the 2.2 first, there's already a video showing the N1 run flash under Android 2.2.

[Guest HustlinDaily]

I hope they find a way to get it. This phone does have a Snapdragon processor meaning it will be flash capable- http://androidandme.com/2010/02/news/no-fl...android-phones/

[Guest Quipeace]

Doesn't google want to release this in multiple pieces so you won't have to wait for the manufacturer to release it?

Now I'm really excited about Android 2.2 Froyo. Apparently the JIT (Just In Time) java complier converts code into native form which will speed up most apps. The apps that are already native (such as games) won't see much improvement. But still I hope our Acer Liquid gets 2.2. If the Liquid E with 2.1 is just coming out, there's no reason why Liquid E wouldn't get 2.2 too, which means us A1 owners should also get it... If Acer keeps up the good support of their products I'm even considering getting one of their netbooks as my next PC replacement.

BTW, out of curiosity, I downloaded the linpack app and ran it on my Liquid running stock 0.016 2.1 ROM and the score is around 5 MFLOPS, which is a bit less than the Nexus One 1 Ghz CPU.

4.5 times faster?? How can it be? :P

Quite easy - native code always run faster.

try doing some video processing

on C I can push a good 15-20fps - fairly smooth output (converting yuv to b/w, very simple to do)

in java however, it goes at 5 - 10spf, thats 5 - 10 seconds per frame... (I tried java first, then moved to C)

all on 320x240 reso video from the camera

[Guest Ethern1ty]

I saw Froyo is available on Nexus One. Do you think it will be possible to adapt NexusOne Froyo image for Liquid?
