Goodness I know people should search, but why be an ASS to a person just asking something. No wonder this forum is so childish.

because people are lazy. for the most part they just want it handed to them. (give a man a fish vs teach a man to fish thing)

thanks for the information....
I am really new to this comunity forums, so what type of donation should i send to help out ther group?

There is no official Froyo for our Epics, however there are several roms running the Froyo leak a.k.a. DK28.
First of all. Are you rooted?
PLEASE NOTE Post this type of questions in General section of the forums. This section is for development purposes only.
BTW. You will get more answers in that section, General
Thanks

You don't have to donate if you don't want. Just read read read read read and read. Then read some more. Play around a bit and don't be afraid to ask questions– just be sure to ask in General, or preferably the Q&A forum. If you get stuck, there are plenty of people who are more than willing to help, just make sure to try and help yourself first. Oh, and be sure to read.

Yes I am rooted, using Terminal Emulator Pro and Superuser

You should be glad someone hear tried to help you out. As far as I'm concerned people like you should be banned for a day every time they post in the wrong section or ask a question that has obviously already been answered in another thread! Do yourself a favor and read the rules and use the search button! Yes I know you have been told this but it seems like you need it drilled in your head.

You obviously aren't a noob but it seems like you don't frequent these forums much because if you did you would understand how sick and tired we are of this bull****! None of the new members take the time to read the forum rules, wikis or even have the common sense to just search. So if your wondering why he gets flamed then there is your answer straight from my childish mouth!

Donate your time. Start in the sticky, move on to the search. There is a library in front of you if you only look.

so then lets make him feel like **** and he may never get on another forum , wow dude cmon.
for all we know this mighrt be his first time being on a forum , i dont know . i just see giving him a hard time the wrong way to do it. you could have said hey it may help if you search . instead of name calling belittling.
just my 2 cents

people dont understand a basic thing.. the info on the forums most of the times is outdated and no one will know for sure until they try it out ... and for a noob .. its really scary to go ahead and give a try without knowing for sure if its perfectly accurate wht s/he is doing.. for eg i came accross a forum to root android device by downgrading to 2.0 which i highly doubt if would even work now.

Kind petition to the wonder community

Ok guys, Samsung is not updating our phone to ICS. We hate this choice, but we can't help it.
Everyone is waiting for arco68 and the ICS porting, that is gonna be awesome but isn't here yet.
All I see around here is whining and questions, but no one lifts a finger to push this community: no one cares to see how to port mods, themes, and all kind of things that make Android interesting: if I wanted a closed source phone I'd have bought an iPhone and let it be as it came out of the box.
So PLEASE guys: the next time you come here to beg on the "cm9 build thread", instead look on XDA, read guides, try something, DO SOMETHING. If you don't know how to, ASK! If you don't manage, post here, we'll see what we can do to help.
There is no need to be a developer or know about code: you'll find tons of step-by-step guides all over XDA that will teach you.
We can't keep always asking. It's time to ACT!

Guys....
I think there is just over-enthusiasm and some impatience.....
perhaps, as a 58 yr-old enthusiast, I have done whatever I could in the way of advice and some experience in IT and Telco...
but young people, which I wish I was, don't have the patience which comes with age
I really have not seen anyone here really getting obnoxious, [well..maybe 1 person].....
so ppl should not take offence for little reason.....
Take a break, come back refreshed.....
ppl here only wish Devs the best, and hope they can solve outstanding issues....I genuinely feel this to be true

Just One Suggestion
I have asked before for a Q & A Section, but if this is not possible perhaps add to this section any links for the topics noted in your fist post as searching xda vast resources is not easy for me and maybe also for others.

Hi all, I never write on this forum, i just read and waiting for news from our community, and i totally agree with fender90, we all need to do something for this Wonder(ful) smartphone!
Probably all of us are waiting for ics/cm9 and i think this is why only few people are trying to do something for us on gingerbread.
In my case i'd like to do something like a kernel with bln for example, but first of all for now i only rooted my phone and i'm afraid of briking my only phone trying to do other mods...Also, i dunno how to begin to do something else like develop a new kernel or improve the features of our w, like the devs on this forum are doing...So i'd really like to see more activity for this phone, and i'd really like to have a part on that, but i dunno how, and first to mod my phone i need to be sure on how i can test my possible mods without damages...

Unfortunately there is no "safe" way to mod, there is always some little bit of risk. But little mods can't hard brick your phone!
What arco68 is doing is the hard work that can brick your phone. He knows what he's doing.
Little mods to the framework or somthing like that will (in the worst case) soft brick your phone, that can be solved in 10 minutes by reflashing a ROM or restoring a Nandroid backup.
About how, check this out: that was the thing I was trying to do before kinda giving up because I don't see an active community that is actually trying to do something: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1169443

fender....thanx for that!!!!
I would say that an active participating community will take some time to evolve!!
This forum is very young yet, and I am not sure it will ever become as big and active as those for more popular devices.
however, I also think that you should continue to do stuff, like you have linked, it will also encourage others with similar skills to contribute, and others to learn and become skilled....
keep up the good work!!

I know there is always a little risk, however i'm new in android, so i need to read more and learn how to save and restore my data before to mod my phone...then i'd like to know the basics to develop and then i can try do something, but there are a lot of information in the forum so it's difficult for a newbie to understand where to begin, what are the easy mods can be done...when i have times to search surely i'll do it, but til then we need all the man like u that wanna improve this phone...cause, ics or not, this is a great smartphone!
PS. thanks for all u are doing for us fender! Pls don't stop

USR 2.1 for me. Simple and stylish ICS type. Repencis v3.5 greeny theme is too much to handle even though we can change backgrounds and stuff
As for performance is considered , both stand at the same level imo. I am gonna go for USR since the dev is amazing . He fixes bugs within minutes!
But repencis stands out in customization. It is very much customizable which I am not much interested in
Its your wish OP. I say try both cuz they are AWESOME!

Using first Custom ROM Ultimate Sonic Rom v2.1
Hello everyone,
Thanks to everyone for your advises for this one. This was my first time so, I was a bit in-tensed as any wrong step can brick the phone.
Well, I have done that silly mistake and soft bricked the phone, anyway thanks to "evanlocked" and "vaibhavlokare111" for helping me and guide me to install the Custom ROM.
Yes folks, I have installed the Custom ROM named Ultimate Sonic Rom v2.1 by evanlocked.
I have checked Repencis v3.5 ROM also, but to be fair I don't really attracted with the GreenY flavor of that. No hard feelings!
But the USR 2.1 Screenshot is very nice and also it is DXLE1 based. So, Installed it and I am extremely HAPPY with it.
It's look is Awesome, It's MIUI port Music is Awesome. Those ICS icons and Transparency is Great and last but not the least the status bar is Fantastic!
So far I have not found any bug in this ROM...
So, I am gonna stick with it for a while till any other nice looking ROM came out.
I'll update it here...
Don't worry newbies in Custom ROMs like me, If you like ANY Custom ROM Screenshots, Go for it..... The devs and members are great in this Forum.. Not to worry much..
JUST FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTION GIVEN WITH THE ROM VERY CAREFULLY! If you don't understand any step or stuck into some situation Just ask it in that thread, you will be guided by helpful members and DEVs.
In the meanwhile, guys who are PRO in Custom ROMs keep posting here your thoughts about new ROMs... These posts are really helpful.
Thanks.

Question to advanced developers

Is there a possibility to add the rotational animation effect to a SONY GingerBread rom?. I'm asking this because in CM 7 ROM, that is based on Gingerbread, this effect is present. I'm not sure if this feature is in Framework, but is there someone that could port that to a SONY GB rom?.
And another question: What about a multitasking GB rom?, on GB when you switch to another app, the last one closes, and if you back to last one used from the recent app list it opens from the begining.
Hope that advance people respond to this.
Thanks for your time.:fingers-crossed:

Sorry, I was on a rush. I corrected the meaning.

As far as I know it is not possible to add an rotation transition effect into GB. From what I remember reading back in the GB days, the animation is dealt within the lib files ( .so files) which can't be edited. I could be wrong, but this is what I read. There was a thread investigating this matter.

I checked your post, and I noticed that the files you mentioned already was in CM7 rom, but not in a GB rom. Anyway, I'm sure that this is not as simple as adding those files to a GB rom. I'm sure that some harcoding must be done on a SONY GB ROM to acomplish that.
Hope that any other advanced dev see this thread and discuss it. :fingers-crossed:

If I would started this topic in the DEV section (because only devs can answer this kind of question), I would have at least 10 responses from devs.
Then, this thread was moved to "General Arc", and there I could have at least two more replies.
But now.. This thread was moved to " Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting", and in this thread... there is no dev reading posts.
I know that rules are alive before I post something... but aswell, I know that if I do a very tech question... geberal and Q&A forums will not give a spected answer.
SO. wich user could spect a worth response from a right devr?
If devs would look at the Q&A and general forums, maybe this place would be with a lot of less noobs asking what already was answered.

Sorry, Im not a developer, and so, I cannot coock a rom adding the files mentioned. Anyway, Weeo answer was the most interesting, I'm giving that to some developers and see if the could try to do something.

what weeo is right bcz an (.so) file cant be edited after its compiled ....so CM rom are built from source where .so files can be edited before compiling...so thats why CM7 have those animations....
its not possible to add that in stock roms...
i told my point of view.......if iam wrong plz correct me..

mm, seems that the door is still open
I personally think that finally it's not possible... if so, the old GB developers would implemented that already.
I'm wondering is there existed some SONY X10 coocked rom with that feature.

i was looking into this a while back and someone seems to have managed it on samsung S2 2.3.6
