BazookaAce kindly made a thread at the general section to inform us about Honeycomb for the DHD, so I thought I'd make one in the development section to give it some spotlight, BazookaAce's thread is here:

Here's the good stuff:

I did not develop this. The purpose of this thread is to inform our developers here about it.

Good luck.

Edit: My findings:
No wi-fi, no telephone, no brightness control, no sd-card detection, stuff on the homescreen (launcher) are not organized. And it's slow since there is zero ui acceleration.

Of course, performing a Nandroid backup is highly recommended.
This is only a plaything & it's not good enough for day to day use.

Hmm. I've always thought that it was common courtesy to ask before doing. :p Not that I'd say no - just saying.

Here's a few tips:
Landscape via opening the camera app and then closing it.

Spare Parts -> Font Size -> Extremely Large Font. That way you can read without straining your eyes.

Also, if you allow your screen to turn off after the bootup, it will turn down brightness for each time it turns off. It won't turn it up. Weird little bugger.

so what are you suggesting then MR NOT-ALLOWED-TO-SAY-AWESOME???

I`m suggesting U start new thread about this port in general section "YEAH YEAH - reaction after Honeycomb port" and do not post here usless for developers posts ( IN DEVELOPERS section) ... If everyone will post just COOL GREAT WOW ... in few minutes there would be 10 sites about nothing and real developers couldn`t find here anything to make it better in so many useless post.

As you can see in the video it's quite useable concerning the size.
But this ROM is build from the API-Preview SDK, so nor its finished nor it has any kind of source code behind.
I think as soon as google releases the source code we will see a proper Honeycomb version for our DHDs.

so, usb debugging is working and if you change the density to somthing higher you get a pulldownmenu and a forceclosing launcher but there are sings for a phone interface.

    could we stop all the cool awesome yaddi yaddi post, and post something about how to get ahead with this version instead?
