Google: “No Plans To Support The Sprint Galaxy Nexus As A Target Device For Custom AOSP Builds”:
Well while the
Verizon Galaxy Nexus is
one step closer to truly becoming a “Nexus”,
Sprint’s Galaxy Nexus is still lacking
AOSP support, so what gives? Well, for one thing Verizon’s Galaxy Nexus— also known as
toro— only has experimental binaries at this point and Sprint’s Galaxy Nexus— also known as
toroplus— well… is not getting even an experimental build of the various binaries. And not only that— Sprint’s Galaxy Nexus is not only getting the cold shoulder from Google Developers, but there are no immediate plans to offer support for that version of the device as indicated by Jean-Baptiste Queru:
“As far as toroplus, the situation is unchanged: there are no plans to support it as a target device for custom AOSP builds.
JBQ.”
This is certainly a bit of a messy situation unfolding. Considering the resounding success of the
Nexus S 4G and the fact loyal Sprint customers have been eager to have the Galaxy Nexus, Sprint (and Google) would best figure out some type of compromise or solution and soon. The loyal Nexus customers deserve at least that much.
