Guest navygino Posted January 10, 2011 Report Posted January 10, 2011 I had kept silent for a long time but when the source will be released? I want OC kernel with my Liquid 2.2!!!!!!!!!! :D
Guest Master_T Posted January 10, 2011 Report Posted January 10, 2011 In another topic we were talking about starting an email campaign to request the source, but then we never got around to it. We should really start bugging them, like with a LOT of emails every day, so maybe they'll be annoyed enough to release it....
Guest Edward.W Posted January 10, 2011 Report Posted January 10, 2011 I had kept silent for a long time but when the source will be released? I want OC kernel with my Liquid 2.2!!!!!!!!!! :P Maybe you need to ask somebody inside in the Acer smartphone department :D
Guest bellanano Posted January 10, 2011 Report Posted January 10, 2011 Someone knows an email address to write? So, let's start annoying ACER !
Guest xdxdxdxdxdx Posted January 10, 2011 Report Posted January 10, 2011 hmm…i think they are developing the 2.6.32 kernel for liquid(it is quit irresponsible of acer to release a froyo with 2.6.29 kernel).and stream's froyo kernel is 2.6.29 right?i think it will come together at next update.XD

Guest koudelka Posted January 10, 2011 Report Posted January 10, 2011 I do not think they are developing a 2.6.32 kernel, why would they do that when the one they have now works? Even if they are they should relese the current kernel source now because with every release they should provide code. I have sent mesage about this but the response I got was "we have currently not planned this upgrade" , the people who answer support mail are clue less... so I am giving up... maybe if we are lucky we eill get it one day.

Guest TheShak Posted January 10, 2011 Report Posted January 10, 2011 Does the Liquid MT source code help?
Guest HustlinDaily Posted January 10, 2011 Report Posted January 10, 2011 Doubt it because hardware is very different (especially processor).
Guest vache Posted January 10, 2011 Report Posted January 10, 2011 Does the Liquid MT source code help? Metal kernel is still 2.6.29.
Guest Edward.W Posted January 10, 2011 Report Posted January 10, 2011 this post can explain why i sure that Liquid will get 32kernelhttp://cn.mobile01.com/topicdetail.php?f=564&t=1941185&p=1 If I go into the link from the post given,it's just an FAQ about "How to change the UI back to Android one." I am not sure about it :D

Guest Edward.W Posted January 11, 2011 Report Posted January 11, 2011 try www.mobile01.com/topicdetail.php?f=564&t=1941185&p=1 It mentions that Acer will release a fix for the performance( For Stream and Liquid E) :D
Guest HustlinDaily Posted January 12, 2011 Report Posted January 12, 2011 We need to get their attention somehow. If only we can get major news sites like Engadget, Gizmodo, BGR or something to post an article about how Acer is not complying with open source licenses. I don't know. Any ideas?
Guest navygino Posted January 13, 2011 Report Posted January 13, 2011 Come on! Acer! I know you read this thread! Release the kernel source! Hurry Up!
Guest Master_T Posted January 13, 2011 Report Posted January 13, 2011 Well, I just sent an email through here: http://acer--uk.custhelp.com/app/ask Here's what I wrote: I write to inquire about the release of the Android 2.2 Kernel Sources for the LiquidE smartphone. To be more precise, I'd like to know when you intend to release them. You are aware, I presume, that by releasing the 2.2 ROM but not the kernel sources you are in violation of the GPL licence? I hope you aren't violating the GPL on purpose, and that you are working on releasing the source asap. Sincerely Feel free to send one too, maybe if enough people complain they will be annoyed enough to release it.
Guest Varyag Posted January 13, 2011 Report Posted January 13, 2011 Well, I just sent an email through here: http://acer--uk.custhelp.com/app/ask Here's what I wrote: Feel free to send one too, maybe if enough people complain they will be annoyed enough to release it. may be they are not ready? maybe they are working hard on new kernel? why don't just wait?
Guest Master_T Posted January 13, 2011 Report Posted January 13, 2011 may be they are not ready? maybe they are working hard on new kernel? why don't just wait? Well, that's why I wrote "I hope you are working on releasing the source asap.". If that's the case, all well and good, but why won't they tell us? Let's see what they reply, on the confirmation email it said they would reply in 24-48 hrs.
Guest koudelka Posted January 13, 2011 Report Posted January 13, 2011 may be they are not ready? maybe they are working hard on new kernel? why don't just wait? Not ready?? if they have built and released a kernel, then they are ready. As I understand it, they should release at the same time they release the rom to follow GPL.
Guest Varyag Posted January 13, 2011 Report Posted January 13, 2011 Not ready?? if they have built and released a kernel, then they are ready. As I understand it, they should release at the same time they release the rom to follow GPL. maybe they released buggy beta rom, they know its bugs, working on them, optimising it fo A1, and don't want to release buggy beta kernel?) on their site there is some "kernel source". everything looks ok))
Guest Master_T Posted January 13, 2011 Report Posted January 13, 2011 (edited) maybe they released buggy beta rom, they know its bugs, working on them, optimising it fo A1, and don't want to release buggy beta kernel?) on their site there is some "kernel source". everything looks ok)) I think you are WAY too optimistic... and also, if the ROM was good enough to be released, they wouldn''t hold on to the kernel just to "improve" it, what would be the benefit? The 2.1 sources, as our devs know very well, were a fu**ing mess, so I doubt they aren't releasing it because "don't want to release buggy beta kernel" as you put it.

Still, we are hoping for that. :D BTW, you can't get 9000 marks in quadrant,don't you? :P Just kiding
