Hello all,
I'm not a developer, but i'm just curious with CM9 on my first android device (GT-i8150), so I try to build CM9 source + arco's ancora ics.
I didn't changed anything except Line 45 on device/samsung/ancora/device.mk :
Code:
$(LOCAL_PATH)/init.qcom.usb.rc:root/init.qcom.usb.rc \
because I dunno where the init.qcom.usb.rc is located.
Stuff that currently work:
Phone (Call,SMS)
Mobile Network (3G, HSDPA)
Wifi
Bluetooth file transfer (only test transfer from GT-I8150 to my netbook)
Audio (Music)
Screecapture
Power (Power Off, Reboot)
Stuff that currently not work:
Camera
USB Mass Storage (idk how to enable it, no notification on statusbar)
Stuff that currently not tested:
Anything except above
I would say many thank's to arco & everyone who participated for the hard work making CM9 on our GT-I8150
Sorry for video, only taken with old phone
Very nice!
Thank you.
in the old os to enable usb mass storage is enable at usb debugging, check it then connect ur usb..

and can u give me the link i wanna try too
Can't you people wait? -.-
Headphone audio also doesn't work, charging the phone is problematic, GPU is causing certain root applications todos crash, as well as a few other problems.
If you can't really tell what works or not don't do it. CM9 is far from ready unfortunately. You're giving everyone the idea that it's all fine and dandy

okey sorry
Sorry, please close this thread.
I quit.. bye.
Nice to meet you all..
Hey Guys, just relax!
To quote John Carmack:
"It's done when it's done!"
No one wants a buggy CM9 on I8150, so be patient!
But I don't see a problem in testing early versions though... Just makes people getting hotter!

Social answer: Yes ofcourse, no problem... take it easy... take all the time you need...
Honest answer: I want it yesterday! give it to me! i cant wait !!
Just kidding, Arco wants to make a good and solid product, and since he likes to work alone, he really need some time for this jewel!
And ofcourse is everyone very curious, but thats only of enthusiasm !
Of course we can('t) wait!
Of course no one is expecting a stable release from other than arco because the guy just know his thing.
Still, the guys want to try and learn and that's good. If I knew a bit more (and I'm trying, slowly) and was not so dependent on my phone being FULLY FUNCTIONAL for my work I'd probably give it a shot too.
Have patience Dude arco68 is working on it...he has gone thru a bricked SGW thru out he dev.
It will be released I know he can do it....ROM dev. requires patience n focus...one wrong move n that's it...
This is his style......

heyyyyy man.....
no need for that kinda stuff, we are all new to this phone, but not new to this XDA community, or other communities...
like Android Forums, and Modaco, etc
I think everyone needs to chill.....but not to run off like that....and not say things we will regret later.....
not called for, we all try to help, in whatever way.
So many projects are destroyed by too much EGO....
so we need to be patient, but not get into strop when criticised, if it is constructive.
Constructive Criticism is good, and it builds Character

Thx man.appreciate that..I will keep in mind...forgive me if I'm running to kinda stuff and saying **** like that.
But I will not regret what I'm saying.the only thing that I will regret when I'm not spilling it out.
I know all of u guys being on this community for too long period of time..and u know much better than me..but this is not how long u have been on thing like this.this is about man's right and people's feeling bro.. And about the criticism..its not a constructive,but its like killing someone..why is everybody treat that man like his doing distribute of something.?or like this man want u to obey for follow his step...?that dude just want to show his work,but maybe some of u guys say his work "it's nothing to be proud of"....but for him maybe its worth it and doing that for his own satisfaction..he just wanna share his excitements for what his been doing.that's all..
And not a single word from him that this thing is fully functional rom and blah blah blah...u guys know that.
I know that Everybody have his own idea and it's different from everybody else....maybe I'm with a wrong side..I'm sorry.
I' apologize to all of u for polluted this sacred community ..I'm just said what I want to say..I'm not born in a Communist country..

Well I know this is sudden and possibly stupid, but I'm retiring from ROM development completely for those reasons:
1. I don't have the time anymore. I strive to be a game designer and that's my focus, dividing my attention unfortunately at my age isn't really an option considering I have a job currently and I need to pay the bills.
2. I got stuck in the development of CM7, and with lack of tutorials and my little time I can't really get past beyond the point I'm at. Fret not though, with luck Arco68's CM9 should be around the corner. He's really good and won't disappoint you like me. Give him time though =P
It was a pleasure to give a small push to this phone's community which I will keep an eye on (I will try to run for mod of this phone's forum, who knows, eh). For a good in-development ROM for now, look at cowithgun's rom, he's constantly updating it =P
Well I said my piece. Have fun guys!

Hey KP, I hope you will rethink about this decision, because you're an awesome guy and programmer!
But as always, your life comes first. So settle things with your job and then retake ROM development when you have the time for it
Hey mate,
a man has to make priorities and your private life always has to come first
You gave the SGW community a big push with your custom ROMs and that´s what counts.
Sad sad news, but as everyone said, personal matters come first, always.
I wish you all the best with your real life.
Thanks for pushing the W community so far.

Well, as you say unexpected indeed.
But you have had the good grace to announce it here, and for that I think this growing Community thank you.
You have been a leader and a doer here, thank you!!
Get on with your life, job and studies, good luck with whatever you undertake in the future.....
but, do you know, I have a suspicion we have not seen the last or the best of KP

OK
Only sing any praises AFTER I get CM7 to work... I have a few good ideas on maybe how it will work (maybe).. It's based on a old theory I had when I first thought about porting CM7..
Let's hope ir works... For now, re-downloading sources

Since we have a new thread about CM7/Oxygen from Kezra I think he gave a second thought, at least for now. Or maybe he's just being able to manage things bt slowing down at the moment.
Whatever path you take thanks for the effort, man!
Hey Kezra,thanks for making the W community Wonderful,its nice knowing you around
Alright guys this is our shot to get a GOOD/Well Known developer that sticks to one device only (read below) to our FORUMS.
Im talking about Eugene373, he is willing to come to our side if a phone shows up at his porch lol
If you read below, a used device (good condition) would be good and yea... read what he himself said below
eugene373 said:
Let's be clear on a few things here...
I make no promise, other than to work on it...
Also, the device should be used!!!! Money doesn't grow on trees!!!
But, also in good shape, as it would be my primary device as everyone that knows me, knows I'm a 1 device kinda guy.
If every can handle these terms & don't expect eta's, then count me in.

Rather be safe then sorry"

I am in no way against this, BUT, Samsung IS going to drop ICS Q1 so we have maybe 2 months ...
How much can get done before then without proper source??
Just trying to be a realist ...
I want ICS as much as the next person .....
So if bringing back Eugene373 , by some miracle could speed that up , awesome , but honestly I doubt it ..
NOW on the other hand .... if Eugene373 just wants to bring his style immediately to GB ROMs I am all for that ... I loved my Vibrant back in those days .. .

Also if this must happen why doesnt someone arrange to buy one of those IMEI less or blacklisted one for $100-120 from one of the many threads about buying a blacklisted one.

Does seem quite promising
You know it wouldn't be so bad if he did do a little deving an then left, but he literally takes everything with him when he leaves, then falls off the planet for a while.. but don't get me wrong, when the guy dev'ed he did a badass job, literally was the first person to bring us Gingerbread for the Vibrant, I'm just tired of (and I know others are too) investing money into a "hmm I'll stay, then leave, then maybe come back" dev.
Lol look I wrote a novel.
You don't try to get a dev like Eugene on your phone for hope that he can bring ICS, you try to get him because ICS or GB, he makes awesome stuff, and could attract other great devs.
The vibrant wouldn't have been what it is/was without him. I loved mine because of him, Whitehawkx, Roman, Sombionix, ttaggal (I think that was it), etc. Too many greats to mention.
i thought this website was best for android developing :/ but no .>! no working cm7 yet ? i mean cmon billions buyed this cheapest sgy ! they al might be so dissapointed -_- ! i would like to give a shot to the androidforums blog something ! let's see if it's faster then this xda
and what is your contributions? if you want cm7,cm9, or whatever os you wan't to ported to sgy as fast as possible, paid professional developers to do for you. but i am sure it will cost you the same amount money with (at least) 2-3 galaxy s3. that's if you can find a developer willing to do for you.
Crazy Big Mouth Noobs! Sumtimes Doesn't even understand how to change permissions of a file.. nd after reading some blogs nd trying out some custom roms expects dat CM will drop from the sky!! ..Well lemme tell u.. The Major developers r same over every forum.. Nd this is the largest of em! So If u can't find sumthing in xda... U probably won't find it anywhere! If u r so desperate.. Donate to one of the developers who r trying to build CM7 bt doesn't hv our device.. still they r trying.. Try to appreciate the effort for a change!!
Why won't you just buy a phone that has cyanogen we are not dissapointed at are phones we are dissapointed at people like you!!!
Cm7 takes time to build you are already lucky because they trying hard to make this rom while you are just a big mouthed noob!!!
You are very lucky you can just sit down and flash roms did you ever wonder about the developers hard work!?!

dont mind threads like this some people have no idea on how hard it is to port CM or MIUI to a android phone, some even take years to get a working port however we have highly skilled devs who are dedicated to port the rom for us, complaining about it wont get us there
so its either you'll sell ur SGY for a SG-Mini or ace or fit, SG-mini is cheaper than SGY now and some will trade your SGY for a mini, and it has a CM7 and ICS port, before you bought the phone you should have done a extensive reseach on what will it benefit you and what are the phone's limitations
so sell or trade it on ebay or somethin, and be considerate that its not the dev's job to port anything, have a life and understand it, give thanks to small things we have in this little community of ours in which i love
The fact is dat these guys only deserve the stock! But they r getting sooo much more than that.. that they donno nd dont want to think about the hard part!! Just whinning all the time!
Grrr !
WHAT A NOOB !!You don't know how our developers work hard to port CM7 for us ,Porting a ROM from other device is difficult as some developers here doesn't have SGY but they still trying to port CM7 for us , If you're looking for a cheap phone that has CM7 then trade your Galaxy for a Galaxy Mini !! SHAME ON YOU NOOB !!

Hello my Friends,
The time has really come to say Good Bye to all my Wonder Friends. I enjoyed and had a good time with all of you by learning/porting stuff.
I8150 is really a nice phone, but I needed to shift from this phone due to some reason.
Long story short, I spent half of my life in coding, leading teams of software engineers, managing enterprise level ERPs and architecting enterprise level application in all the latest and old languages/technologies. I took out some time and did some porting stuff, but my main target was to develop CM7 from sources.
I have most experience in Java/J2EE and less in C++. I tried to take help from different peoples but my bad luck no one guided me due to lack of time or just for no reason.
Not only from our forum I tried to contacted Exihibit II , Galaxy S Plus but I didn't get positive response, whatever the reason is but no one guide me. I searched myself and read a lot of material on net but not a single guide is perfect. There is no problem with Linux setup, I am use to of it.
I believe in Opensource and helping each other by spreading/sharing knowledge but in my case I couldn't search a person like this.
So I decided to switch (just not for CM7) to a device that have a lot of custom roms.
The porting I did is an asset for all of you. I want the guys should come up and take over the Roms from me. I hope you enjoyed my custom roms. If there is anyone who has some programming experience with smali/backsmali, apktool, understanding rom folders, hands on on merging /diff, ready to take risk of bricking then I will be happy to transfer my knowledge, but due to my tough schedule the person should be expert and self starter.
And finally I would like to special thank @arco, @andyroid, @irishpancake and All my Wonder community members.
Thank You All
i wish i had enough knowledge cuz i really wantd to learn from you but im just a noob at these stufff
but i hope u have a better experience with your new device
I Hate You For This...Really ...With a Poke.... So What is That New Device of Yours ?

wow. wow. I was shocked for a while. what a sad news. how could it be? but thanks, so many thanks for your effort and big contribution in our little community, for porting good rom, for sharing knowledge and many help you did to us, thanks to make our wonder phone more attractive with the rom but yeah, sometime you must move to a larger box while you don't fit anymore in a small one. thanks again alidsd

Hi Ali dsd,
Please stick around as there's no one place or person to obtain this building -information in a reliable and complete form that we're looking for. I too got burnt similarly and still am in process of setting my own build environment based whatever that seemed to work for me from my captures from various blogs, forums and sites.
It's from open minded contributors like you that, when collectively packaged, would effective stuff come and came from. While I respectfully disagree this to be a reason for departure which is quite an expected risk with any open source stuff, I think your presence and continued contribution would benefit others looking to go along your route, though your participation might be less active than earlier.

Don't worry @andyroid, I am not going from XDA, I will be around , I will be checking W forums ( I haven't deleted it from my Fav ) time to time.
Amazingly my new device is not a high end device, Its just Nexus S. I think you will ask why ????
It will save my time . ... How ???? Mostly all types of Rom flavors are there, I just need to flash and use it, and the time I save from here can put on getting some certifications (like PMP, J2EE Architect and MCPD ). Its my decision and it doesn't mean that Nexus S is superior then Galaxy W.
Believe me or not but Galaxy W is an amazing device based on hardware it uses and the small size is very pocket friendly.

I am always here, i can be reached on PM or email.
I have already said that anyone who have some knowledge in porting can contact me , i will happily transfer my knowledge, because sharing knowledge is the major path to increase knowledge and community, but the person should have some experience.
I want someone to continue MIUIv4 and AOKP, or if someone come-up with their own porting version of any Rom then please ask Mod to delete my two threads.
I really appreciate all of your feelings.
Thanks,
AliDSD
Thanks for your great contribution ali, really appreciate it
Nexus s is a great device to fiddle with I'm pretty sure you'll find lots of stuff to learn there

HI alidsd, I understand you, cause I have your same motivation on developing. I studied information tecnology, so I have some knowledgies, but I'm new with android and I'm trying to do somenthing with my rom. I have your main target, build cm7 from source, but as u said there isn't a guide that really help in this, and for me is difficult to begin with it.
So now I have begininng to first port some mods to a gb rom, then to learn how to create a kernel and to port a complete rom. After these steps I like to begin cm7 from source, but I know is really hard.
I also have to say that it is demotivating to see there aren't much developers for our phone, that we haven't ICS from Samsung and at this time we haven't a complete ICS rom, while there is a new android version so probably i never work on cm7, too old...and for this, i was thinking it was better if I took a nexus s....however i can't change phone for now, so i continue to study and develop for my W...but in future the only phone i'll buy should be a nexus or a phone with more contribute from community...
Goodbye Ali and good luck with your new phone
Friend alidsd :crying:
I am so sad to see you are moving on....I know it will be for the better for you and your career!!!!!
Thank you for mentioning me in your OP, I really appreciate it.....
[I have been missing recently, due to that health issue....but things are OK, and will hopefully stay that way....God willing]
The old community loses another member with such skills, first qzem, KP, now you!!!! [apologies to any others left out, no offence!!]
All the best for the future, and do drop by whenever you get time, it was really good!!!!
Cheers man :good: :good:
yo alidsd,,
well i guess this is not a goodbye coz you're still gonna be around here:].,but still have to say thanks for all your great works by porting some wonderful ROMs..Wonder's forum still open for your advice anytime you have,,
happy porting buddy..
regards,
kidd
i was motivated by your words Alisd, i really was serious and dreamed to learn more about android, i wanted to try what bagux was doing but i ain't got enough time for it. i was amazed and never imagined that a person whose managing software engineers also tried tweaking our W XD i'm just a beginner software engineer about 6months old on work and specialized in VB and for some reasons i can say i also am at Cobol, i was still trying to learn now despite of the schedule i have and i am starting it on making android apps for now and maybe tweaking in the future. can i ask what company are you working?
UPDATE
UPDATE
I got rid of Nexus S and bought HTC Desire S. Most of you will be wondering Why ???, a lot of reasons. if anyone have interest to know then he can PM me.
I would suggest guys not to go for Nexus S now, its not a good time, it could be debatable but its my personal opinion. All of the Roms that are available for NS are also available for DS.
At last Galaxy W is a good phone, so please stick with it till you find a better phone according to your needs.
Because I have been part of this community so I thought that I should update my community.
Thanks,
I am glad to read opinions about me, you are all wonderful people.
@irishpancake, I am really concerned about your health , please take care, and update your health status so our community can pray for you. God bless on you.
I am happy to see that Alex (from Galaxy S+) has ported MIUIv4 successfully , and I hope he will also port AOKP and other CM9 based Roms from S+ to W.
Its great, I believe :
Every threat comes with opportunity.

hey guys, i just modified the liquid smooth rom cause i was bored.
all credits go to the liquid team...i really didnt do anything hard, and i dont consider myself to be a real developer now.
just wondering if anyone wants to test it out to see if it works, and give some feedback.
http://www.mediafire.com/?zj1dfa69nmyewzn
Changes made:
-removal/replacement of a few apps
-build.prop changes
-changes to updater-script
-changed boot animation
Like I said, I didn't make this to make a more optimized version of liquid smooth. It's more of an experiment/attempt to learn a bit.
Thanks.
btw gapps arent included.
What changes did you make to the rom?

a few build.prop tweaks, some modification of systemui, deleted some apps and added others, changed bootanimation, and i think some other stuff that i cant remember anymore.
Not really a good way to inspire confidence in a ROM that you don't even know what you did to it...

im not really trying to promote it to everyone. i just did this as an experiment, and i just want to know if its booting ok, not force closing apps, etc. so that i know whether or not to change something.
How about you test it out yourself before asking others to risk trying it. Just a simple piece of advice.

According to his sig, he doesn't seem to have a GS3. Probably why he is asking for people to test it for him.
and i dont consider myself to be a real developer now.

Feedback:
Who'd want to "Test" a rom from a non-developer, when there are many that are from DEVELOPERS, not to mention the Liquid Smooth was developed by a full team. This to me infers that you are better than a team? Oh well, if you want to try peeps, go for it, but remember, it was done by someone who says he was not a developer.
like getting on a bus with a legally blind driver!
I have no understanding why anyone would!....... and "TEST"? OMG

i clearly said in my original post, that i take no credit for this, and that all credit goes to the liquid smooth team.
By test i didnt mean to go through the whole rom and check if every single thing works. Im just asking that you flash it
and let me know if it boots fine and doenst have any major issues.
like i said, im not trying to promote this as the best rom for the s3 that everyone should start using.
no need to get all pissed...it was just a simple question. If you dont want to try it, why even post?
i understand your concern guys, but blind development happens all around XDA. if this guy today had a "Recognized Developer" tag, i bet many of you would try it out. don't underestimate the OP.
that said, make sure you do understand that there is a risk since this is a blind development, although i doubt anything would go wrong since this is just something the OP took from an already working ROM for the TMO Galaxy S III and tweaked it a bit...

+1. We can do without the drama guys. The OP is doing absolutely nothing out of the ordinary by developing blind. Yes, it is always a risk for testers, which is why he posted this here looking for the willing. If you don't want to try it, please move along and stop flaming each other. :good:

Thanks. Like you said I doubt flashing this would cause any harm. All I really did was change a couple apps and replace some pics in systemui and frameworkres.
Just make a nandroid, flash the rom, let me know if it installs/boots properly, and then just restore your nandroid.
My apologies go out to the op. He did make an effort to further improve an already outstanding rom and asking for testers is KEY. It's a great start for experimenting while increasing your knowledge on the more advanced aspects of android. Will give this a try once my S3 is fully charged!

Considering that its possible to modify firmware images and inject custom malicious code, I don't see anything wrong with questioning someone's motives for putting up a ROM that they admit they don't even remember what changes were done to it. I can understand if you think you've improved upon something but without a change log or anything there isn't really any reason to test it. Being cautious is not the same as being an ass.

I agree, there is absolutely nothing wrong with questioning something suspicious. But there are ways to do it without coming off like a jerk.
@OP I do advise adding more to the OP about the changes made if you want testers.

One thing that I hate about the internet - you can't really control how your message is taken by others. I wasn't trying to be a jerk at all.

Oh no, I wasn't aiming that towards you at all. It was just a general statement. Now let's stop spamming this thread with off topic posts
Everybody has a point to start. May be this is his point.
I swear if I was fan of 4.2 roms I would do it for you. But I already had too much headache with 4.2 roms.
Dont forget to ask original dev before you modify his work like this.
Gud luck ahead.
the rom has 6 downloads, however no one has given any feedback?
if anyone flashed it could you let me know if it works ok.
