Poll-Rhodium Android Development Sub-forum Request!!!

I am posting this only because I am sick, as many of us are, of searching through 10 forums/sub-forums, polls and bountys just to get the information on updates to Android running on our TP2's.
Please vote!!!
Doing this to hopefully get the attention of the mods.

bump
Any other takers?

I voted. I wish all applicable phone forum groups would have an Android sub-forum in them. It would surely clean up the forums a lot!

i definately agree that we should have a sticky for this, would make things much easier to have everything in one place, a one-stop forum for all that is android

87 page threads can be a little tough to sort through too. Hopefully having their own forum will allow them to decompress a little and let noobs like myself get a better idea of the progress without investing enough time to read war and peace. +1 for an Rhodium Android subforum.
no, I like searching in umpteen different places. 4 10.00%

There's never a shortage of wisenheimers on the interwebz.

I dunno this survey question seems iffy

I would definitely like this - there needs to be more threads for Android on Rhodium as things develop, and they need to be kept together. A sub-forum would fit the bill perfectly.

great idea!

I think a subforum would be a great idea...

You could say the same things for any of the more popular WM ROMs too though, e.g. threads with thousands of responses are out of hand and very hard to manage.

Yeah, what this guy said, + the Android sticky; [email protected]

I think what we really need is a mod to close all the Android threads. Then someone who cares about keeping stuff up to date (Read my vote as reefermattness) start a new thread.

I think it is becoming cumbersome to try to sift through all of the threads and post to see if anything has been updated on the XDAndroid project. It would help a lot to see it all in one sub-forum. It would help to clean up the other Rhodium forums also.
Everyone keep up the great work and keep showing all of our support for Android for Rhodium!

an idea whose time has come

I think bringing it to the attention of the mods may help things. Because there is so much development why not have a sub forum to weed through instead of getting it mixed up with the great Roms that are listed in this sub.

Exactly what I am trying to say.

stop being lazy and search/read
or you can go here for one stop information
Android 1.6/2.0 on the HTC Rhodium
just joking around with you guys. Also, just want to give you guys couple links that is working for me (the above and my signature)

i think it is still too early to request an adroid subforum...first get everything to work...then request it
since not everything works
anyway this subforum isn't called "wm rom development",but rom development..so it is totally reasonable that such threads go here
so please triplecheck before you request something...

Except it's not a ROM yet, so I guess it shouldn't belong here. And it's not an application so it shouldn't belong in the Apps sub-forum either.
So let's call it Android Development!

Imagine having to sort through a 797 page thread.... *cough* NRG *cough*
I do agree that we should have a subforum here though, because I never know where to look for TP2 Android port updates, and it seems like if i do find a dedicated thread, theres someone saying to check "the other thread" for more information on one aspect or another... It would be great to have it all in one place!

Stock because everything works and its not slow wait a week or so then we'll talk

hrm, I kinda agree with what he said .
Super excited for all the work being done though... but as a user with only 1 phone, I need to wait till things are a bit more stable.

best rom is over at android central

No Rom is the best yet lol. They are all the same Rom with apks (apps) added and removed. I mean really at the moment the only Rom that is actually different from any other Rom is my half ass working froyo build. This is the wrong section for this thread anyhow. Please post general question threads in q&a or general discussion, not the development forum.

Holy Crap, off topic... is your avatar the snowman from that Windows 3.1 skiing game? Where he comes out and eats you after you've gone too far?!

I am rocking OMJ's rom posted at ppcgeeks and loving it.

What toast said pretty much sums it up. Also, I've seen that posting questions like this can cause drama in the community. Be your own judge and try them all. Different strokes...

No such thing as the best rom as every user will have different opinions and like different things.
Usually opinionated threads like these are frowned upon on XDA as they create endless long threads with no real anser due to everyone having different opinions. For these reasons I am closing thread.....oh and moving it to Q&A due to it not being development related

Dualboot

Is there any way to dualboot a desire? Like dhd?
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA Premium App

wrong section dumbass and no there is no dualboot

^ Haha
but yeah man this should be in Q&A! getting sick of all these questions in the development forum

Easy solution: only devs should have permission to create new threads in dev section (duh!).

Wrong section but its a great idea that would not work too little memory on the phone inself to run a dual boot. so could a Mod just close this as it is completely pointless.

@howdid, You made my day lol

That's a good idea, but it also has a problem, a new developer without a recognized developer badge, can't open a thread and share his work.

This looks like a start of a war between the defenders of n00bs and fighters against n00bs. Mods, how about returning from Tahiti and dealing with this situation?

How 'bout reviewing new threads by mods? (Hypocritical suggestion, I know).

That's a fairly standard option on a lot of forums, in some sections only specific categories of posters can start a new thread ( Mods and recognized developer should cover it here). Everyone else has to submit a new thread for mod approval. If implemented it would stop these "random questions" and d******s who post "hey i'm using this rom but can't be a***d reading the rom thread and gosh this is so important i'm gonna start a new thread

Good idea but don't forget not all people with low post counts post before they think, also i have seen noob type mistakes from senior members with 500+ posts before now.
The better idea is devs only being able to make new threads.

Maybe giving to top 3 devs mod status for entire Desire section. I'm confident they're capable more than enough to keep this place tidy.

with some basic search he could find this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=15442534

Hmmm maybe 2 moderator per section is not enough we need more then 4...that's all...personally I don't have any prob. with noobs but at-least read the section rule....
BTW let see... does how desire is capable to run dual.boot...

I clicked that with expectations.

well I posted in the apps section for beta testers for a multiboot app http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1182325 since it's not rom development but then saw this thread and figured i'd link here if anyone's interested...

Granted the OP could have searched and found his question has been asked already,
BUT
1. Was this originally posted wrongly in the Dev section then moved???? If not, why in the h** are people freaking out about ANYONE asking a question in the Q&A (QUESTION and answer) forum?????????????????????
2. The Desire has the same size nand as the Nexus one, we have apha rev with custom MTD partions and Hboots. One would think that if this is possible on the Nexus one, it should be on the Desire.
3. As someone else said, post count and join date do not necessarily reflect one's amount of knowledge. Some people lack common sense about where to post, others are lazy. No matter what the forum rules are that will never change.
Respectfully,

Yep it was, although it could be better said to just be moved in the Q&A Forums, instead of feeding this post with 15+ responds about the same fact.
Anyway I think this thread should either be continued on the topic or closed.
Sorry for off-topic.

to answer the op question, at the moment no, but uncorrupted has been working on dual booting but hasnt had much joy, there is a thread about it, he'll be starting work again soon

has anyone setup a public cm repository yet?

I remember the Nook Color had a large community effort behind it here on XDA to get CM working on it before it was official... Sounds like several of us are working on the SM-T210/SM-T210R independently... Wondering if anyone has setup a git or anything that everyone can pitch in and get CM off the ground?
If not... Ill start one... though I cannot promise to throw large numbers of hours at it.

i am waiting for the cm10 and android 4.2.2
i need the new multiple user feature...
all my phones got the cm ....i sell the tab 2 and bought a tab 3 ....
cant belive that nobody is modding a cm mod for this one ;(
i ask for it in the cyanogenmod forum .... but no answer

You must be kidding me look at the general forum and development forum you can clearly see that they are working hard on it to get it working

This belongs in a question thread, not a development thread. Any questions (or planning type) thread does not belong in the development section. Once something is actually developed, it can be moved to the development section.

You should look at the nook color development forum's history as referenced before making these sweeping statements.

Well, there IS a sticky thread reading "If you did't create it, it probably doesn't belong here" - we might argue about what create means but anyhow...
There are 3 threads on CM-Development:
This is the most active one:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2473201
These have already been there at the time of your post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2466040
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2495487
Did't you actually post in one of these already? Well it doesn't matter, there are a few repos, one for the kernel:
https://github.com/kumajaya/android_kernel_samsung_lt02
and modules:
https://github.com/kumajaya/android_kernel_samsung_lt02_modules
And for the device-specific files:
https://github.com/TeamRegular/android_device_samsung_lt02wifi
https://github.com/TeamRegular/android_vendor_samsung_lt02wifi
(those are not yet buildable but more complete)
and mine:
https://github.com/kaibutsu/android_device_samsung_lt02wifi
(which is buildable but far from complete)
I hope this helps. I'd like to use the TeamRegular-Repo, but I don't really understand what was done there, so I set up my own - to be synced with the other one at some point.
As far as the other models are concerned, I don't know about them but since their hardware is completely different, I don't think setting up a repo for all three makes sense...

Where is Rom development?

Why the rom development for our phone is too slow?? I cant see even a single rom based on aosp or cm

It is because bootloader is locked for G3, and recently devs found the way to get past the bootloader. They are working on AOSP and other roms, but we need to wait.

Any type of query is never a crap..i have posted my confusion in a sincere manner..if you think this is a crap then there are lot of questions which will stay in our mind and will never be posted here. These forums are for clarifying our confusions and it does not matter what they are..thanks a lot for your reply

A search and your could have found an answer - your post seems demanding - to answer your question - why is rom development slow....
Cause your're impatient.

This post seems rude and impatient. I realize you were asking for help with a legitimate question, but you asked it the complete wrong way. A quick search would have shown you that Bump was released for all G3 variants on October 10th. It has been 2 weeks since the bootloader was unlocked and Team Codefire has not publicly released the method to Bump kernels yet. Reading just a few of the G3 threads for any device would have given yiu your answer and so many people are already discussing this. I apologize for being harsh and I hope I have answered your question.

After some months I'm thinking about changing rom. Thanks for the news.
