So everyone, we're conducting a survey to find if anyone is interesting in us hosting a server for Siri (for devices other than the 4S). Below you'll find the survey, please fill it out to let us know if anyone's interested! Thanks

This is the iDroid Project's second release of Android Gingerbread for iDevices, built from the community source code repos at http://www.github.com/iDroid-Project

This release is for iPhone 2G,  iPhone 3G & iPod Touch 1G and is available as a binary package or via Bootlace.

Special thanks go to ddominator (and those who helped him - Popple3, Lopi etc) for all his hard work with the software buttons.

IF YOUR DEVICE IS NOT STATED ABOVE THEN IT IS NOT SUPPORTED - WE DO NOT HAVE ETA'S ON OTHER PORTS AT THE MOMENT.

You DO NOT need a new version of OpeniBoot to boot this - If your openiboot install is capable of booting later MoJo releases, then it will be able to boot this

Changelog

---

This is a relatively minor release in comparison to previous ones.

• All repos updated in line with upstream, thus we are now running Android 2.3.2
• New software button emulation (Button savior is now completely removed, and buttons added to the status bar and notifications bar)
• SD Emulation hack re-instated - /private/var/sdcard on the iOS side as before
• New custom boot animation by ddominator - we are open to community submissions for artwork!
• Reconfigured keyboard animation values - should reduce input lag considerably
• Various un-noteworthy updates and changes to external projects

Those of you that track us (or me) on github, will have noticed a lot of changes to the ramdisk (and its associated binaries), these changes have not made it into this release, however I am gearing up to drop our current ramdisk set up and completely automate builds, this will enable us to run nightly builds in the near future.

Changelog

This is an entirely new version of Android with our changes and fixes forward-ported.

What state is this in?

---

I have worked extremely hard to bring this port up to the same state as the previously release "MoJo" series.

This release actually fixes a number of longstanding bugs in our previous releases (for example, ringtones now work), there are however a couple of minor points that are missing from this release that were in the last of the MoJo series - These are not permanent issues, they are there simply because I dont have time to work on them at the moment - hence the 'Preview' release.

• There is currently no SD emulation - the hack we used to use has been reverted and for good reason, android now natively has sd emulation functionality, however for it to work we need to bring our dated kernel in line with more current versions - I had a brief go at this but a lot of our core drivers need rewriting in order for this to become a reality and at the moment I simply dont have the time to work on an epic refactor of our kernel (Although I will pick this up in a few weeks)
• There is currently no support for the accelerometer in the userland, the kernel driver still works but our old libsensors does not - this will ultimately be a good thing as I now know how I can also implement the ALS, so the rewrite will be worthwhile

This port should be pretty much on par with the froyo port with the exception for some fixed bugs of course, therefore the airplane toggle still applies for sim pin unlocks etc etc

I have opted NOT to put our soft button notification bar back into gingerbread, due to some recent advancements in button emulation apps - the free version of button savior has been included in this release (with permission from the author) as a temporary measure to give you soft buttons - please do not report bugs with this to us, instead report them to its author.

I have completely removed ADWLauncher from all future builds, it has served us well, but instead (thanks to ddominator for finding/testing the values for me) disabled the animations for Launcher2 which results in it being usable.

Like the rest of the Android community, we have now switched to ext4 images, this journalled filesystem results in significantly reduced corruption and data resiliency at the expense of additional writes to the NAND flash - as the rest of the android community is now using this fs, we are too. if you are paranoid about NAND wear then I suggest that you DO NOT USE these images (Neither I nor the project will be held accountable for any NAND damage - this is entirely at your own risk) and instead copy their contents to ext2 images instead although given that the rest of the world is using ext4 I wouldnt forsee that this is a particular issue.

It is almost certain that your first boot of these images will show a lot of ftl messages and will lag somewhat - PLEASE LEAVE IT TO DO THIS - we now roll out clean userdata images rather than prepopulated ones (this should fix some issues with UUID's etc)

Please also immediately disable the UI animations in Settings > Display > Animations, I'm sure by now I dont need to explain why this is - we still have the same kernel after all
