Develop Bugs

#TeamWhiskey Let's get the ball rolling!

http://www.teamwhiskey.com/
Hey guys,
I wanted to ask everyone here for your help to get the ball rolling to get TEAM WHISKEY start developing for our phone. They just need a few more funds to get the phone for them to start cooking something REAL GOOD.
Now, if you had the Vibrant you know exactly who they are and what they can do.
If you don't just go to the Vibrant forum and search BIONIX 1.3.1. Best Vibrant rom made #PERIOD They brought Froyo to the Vibrant way before Tmobile release an update. They turned the Vibrant from a POS to a great phone.
So can they bring ICS to our phone before an update?, MAYBE. They definitely can if all the source is there. (once it's out)
They took a break, but now are making there way back to the scene.
Now this is not exactly a bounty because a donation is not necessarily needed, but would definitely help.
All you have to do is go to there webpage http://www.teamwhiskey.com/ and click on one of their adsense ads and they will get credit for it.
Now if you would like to donate you can register and donate there.
Either way I hope you guys help with at least a click of the mouse.
Believe me when I say that you won't regret it.
I know we already have some great devs here, but these guys are known for changing the game.
Thanks everyone. I am not a member of Team Whiskey, but a great FAN.
PLEASE NO FLAMING
If you don't want to do it, please just move on. Your negativity is not needed. Only positive people that want even more greatness on their phones.

Just a minor reminder TeamWhiskey have left XDA and they do their DEV work in their own forum, so any one posting their work here should be done in General, and not in the DEV section
also XDA rules only allows direct link to the ROM files
and screen shots
changelogs are nice to have, but not necessary if it's outside work
it's a must if it's local in house XDA development

Are they going to support the galaxy nexus when and if it comes to Tmobile? Love their ROMs and were the only ones I placed on my phone I trust them to make any phone zing and rock. Just my 2 cents

your question is off topic,
this question should be asked in the Galaxy Nexus forum http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1336

Sounds good, thanks.
On a side note ..
I don't blame them, with all the drama that has been going on lately I can tell why.
Some people just don't know how to act and take things personal when it's the internet and XDA is for mostly Development, Customization and 411 of phones. Not personal vendettas and haterism.
Anyways back to the topic....

If and when it comes out for T-Mobile they will. They announced it a couple weeks ago.
But this is for our SGS2 not Nexus, at least not yet.

#Havingablast w/ my SGS2

I know y'all wanna see some of this on our phones!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=46DXt8KoT8E

I would love to see these guys here I'm gonna donate now
But I really needed to say
That I would love to see one of these for nick from miui.us as that rom (once it became more stable) was a literal transformation of performance on my vibrant even compared to cm7.
I know that miui is a port based system and we need to wait for our cm7 port first but I'm willing to donate and/or in willing and ready to help with the process.

Just an update,
Som just picked up the SGS2, so soon we will see some Team Whiskey roms.
Thanks to everyone that donated or went to the website and clicked on the ads.
If you haven't, please at least visit the website and click on the ads so they can get some credit for them. I think Viral still needs his. Either way, can't wait .
Love this phone.

ICS Source Code has been released!

This is awesome. We should be seeing a lot of ROM's popping up soon guys.
http://www.androidcentral.com/ice-cream-sandwich-source-code-now-being-pushed-git-servers
HC source was also released by the way. Maybe we could get some feature in HC on our existing phones.

You didn't see the other three threads pertaining to the release of the ICS source code?

Can't wait for this to start popping up on ROMs. Beautiful!

I'd be happy with an AOSP kernel.

How do you think this is possible? Cyanogen tweeted to check back in two months for CM9. We have no ICS source code for our device. The source code released is designed specifically to compile for use on the Galaxy Nexus, which is nothing like our device in terms of hardware. Please avoid making statements like this, as it only serves to ramp up unrealistic expectations, which is not good for either developers or users.

Apparently you have no idea what you're talking about. Do you honestly think a dev on XDA isn't going to get this up and running for our phones. Look what devs are able to do just with the SDK.
Also, look at the keyword in that sentence. It's not getting people's expectations up. I specifically said hopefully.

Unfortunately, I know significantly more about this issue than you do. None of the SDK ports are complete. Do your research. No developer will EVER claim that an SDK port is a viable daily driver. Also, please point me to where I said that it won't eventually be developed for the E4gT? At no point did I say that. My goal is to temper expectations, which you obviously don't care about. First you said "this weekend." Then you said hopefully CM9 by Christmas. You can say "hopefully" all you want, but Cyanogen himself has given a loose timeframe of 2 months.

I don't see trolling, I see responding. You may not like what he's saying, and I may not like the implications of it, but it appears to be a factual analysis of the situation intended to prevent people from getting overexcited. Look at the amount of entitled *****ing that people have been giving to the CM team over getting ANY version on our phones. People thinking that unrealistic goals are feasible helps raise that. I personally like your optimism, but I'm all for realism being injected into the discussion, too.

Guys, guys, guys. Sometimes its just more fun to raise your hopes; convince yourself there is something to look forward to in the near future. No need to rain on everyone's parade who are (as I am) not knowledgeable enough to know that our hopes may be too high.
Remember when you used to just want things and not have the ability to know whether or not you could get it? Childhood? Its not necessarily a bad thing.
odub303, they're only upset because you're the guy who tells them there is no Santa, then tells them there is no Easter Bunny. Then laughs at them for thinking they existed.

Sweet source is released !!!
.... expect nothing for us anytime soon.

How do you figure? I started this tread to inform people what was released. I didn't get expectations up and I stated I'm willing to bet some dev is already at work on something.
There's always some dude on XDA who thinks he knows it all and wants to spill his 2 cents and bring a thread downhill.
People around here love to start e-drama. He hasn't said anything on here that I already don't know.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium

just because we have source means nothing......
we will not get an ics rom any time soon and we are better off hoping cm9 will be available to our phone
if anything we will get a rom that has no 4g barely any data..camera wont work...just typical stuff

Well out of 60 devices I sure would hope ours would be supported...

Well I was able to get the source built after 20+ hours on my little dell duo netbook/tablet. Now I know there isn't much I can do with it since its built for the galaxy nexus. I just wanted to see if it will build without error.

"In particular, U.S. GSII owners will likely have the longest wait, as there are several hardware variations between the carriers."

I think it has something to do with at least 10 other threads about the international galaxy s2 getting ICS.

I don't understand why everyone is so negative in this forum. It's almost uncomfortable spending time here sometimes.
bmakk2055 posted a link to information about the Samsung Galaxy S II. Yes, from a technical perspective it's obviously a different piece of hardware, but Samsung has given all of its variations the same name and branding. I think it's reasonable to assume they probably intend to handle them in a similar fashion.
No, he didn't post a concrete release date for our device - but it's useful and relevant data nonetheless. If nothing else, it offers clues as to Samsung's plans for the Galaxy S II brand.
Will you people calm down? OMGWTFBBQ!!!1! He wasted a thread!!! THIS COULD MOVE AN OLD THREAD TO THE *GASP* SECOND PAGE!!!!! Is there a finite amount of potential threads or something? Is XDA's server about to run out of disc space? This is a discussion board... not some strictly maintained community encyclopedia. We have stickies for that.
Anyway, I apologize for the wall of text. Thanks for the link bmakk2055. I'm glad you posted it.

thx though OP, dont care what everyone says, any new news in relation to "galaxy s2" and "ics" lets me know were getting closer. Good find regardless of what any skeptical hippos say round here.
Coming to this phone hasnt been easy though. Had a nexus 1 and then nexus s.. its fookin hard to wait for updates like this.

there are more than one that had a link. If it makes it clearer there has been a bunch of articles about the international galaxy s2 getting ICS many of which have included links to articles

Ics! Cm7! Cm9! Omfg!

Just thought there hasn't been an ICS post in the past couple hours so...
THEY HAVEN'T RELEASED ICS OR CM FOR THE T989 OMG!!!
Seriously...you don't even have to search...there are about 4 or 5 ICS posts on the front page...quit wasting our time and just be patient. The forum will blow up with about 100 posts when there actually is news about ICS....
As Reagan said...trust but verify. For all you idiots who find it neccisary to post every ICS scrap you can..
When you read some **** that says the GS2 has/is getting/drivers/etc for ICS, here is a simple step-by-step to determine weather you should post a thread to XDA:
1. Its probably for the international (i9100). We don't give a **** about the internatonal. Just stop reading and go about your business if you even see the word "international". Don't even look at the words if you see a button on the front of the phone on the picture. We don't have a button.
2. our AT&T counterpart is the SKYROCKET (t727). it looks EXACTLY like ours. not the AT&T SGS2 (t777). See 1 on how to deal with news about the AT&T SGS2.
3. If you still think the article has to do with our phone, look for T989. Push ctrl+f (or command+f) and type in t989. If it's not there, don't waste our time.
4. If you find T989 after pushing ctrl+f...read it in context. Most likely its an ad or just confirms you are an idiot for thinking the article meant ICS is coming to the t989.
5. Still hopeful? Repeat 3-4 and search t727.
6. If you are still unsure...repeat steps 1-5.
7. Still think its about the t989?? Just delete your XDA account.
8. Are you just crazy sure that it has to be about the t989?? Check XDA. Somebody will still post ICS threads every hour...
9. I'm sorry if you still think your news is about the t989 after going through all that you should just give up on life now.
10. Don't post anything. Just don't post. Period. Please. Don't. Post.
By following this simple 10-step process, you can determine weather you should post an ICS thread! And maybe it will cut down on ICS posts...I hope this helps you guys...
PS: Sorry if I seem like a troll and actually mislead somebody by my title...just sick of it as everyone else is.

OMGF!! finally!!!
U get thanks bro
BEST POST EVER!!!
U just gut mad respect from me and saved quite a few people their dignity, thanks.

What people misinterpreted about the articlea were that the article mainly mentions international version. Later articles stated that carrier variants would be dependent on the carrier themselves and their own timeline as we'll as other factors. Those factors being that the us has tons of variants using different processors. People sawsgs2 and assumed it meant for us.international did indeed get ics q1 as they said.

Hrrmm slower HW at time of release compared to T959,
Very easy to brick,
S-On/S-off,
No SAMOLED+ display,
Less Internal Storage,
Screen more fragile?
I think that is a good short summary, or at least all the reasons that kept me from going HTC and getting SGS2 when coming from the Vibrant.
As a Vibrant owner I know full well the pain of waiting for Official releases.

So does this mean we are getting it now? I didn't have time to read 2 pages..

Correct. And do to those timelines us carriers probably wont see ICS till probably Q2
People just see the galaxy name and don't realize its a family of devices.
But at the same time, why would samsung support only international, and leave their TOP SELLING DEVICE out?
So to say we wont get it is a little far fetched to say the least

That's what I figured! The official statement doesn't actually include ANY US versions of the GSII line. I can't stand US carriers anymore! Looks like I start saving now for my next phone in 2 years. Must...get...off...subsidized phones!

Everyone spam the tmobile discussion forum for the sgs2 and maybe we'll get a definate time table for annoying them so much

Then what's the point in posting the forum rules in the forum rather then emailed to new accounts with activation?
There is a reason for a sticky you know, failure to read a sticky and posting around it is good cause for flaming or an infraction in my opinion.
Honestly, if u never read a sticky, should definately start..
And also, the title helps, you read this did you not?

Would YOU give your S2 to someone you didn't know?

Whitehawkx does not own a T989.
With JB, AOKP is starting fresh, building the code from the ground up. With no member on Team Kang owning a T989, our JB prospects looked dim. You can read what our future would have been like here.
A lot of people talked about doing something. A lot of people talked about donating to a pool for WHX to get another T989. One person did it. You can read about his decision here.
You can read about the result here.
Not only does this radically affect AOKP, this also affects CM and other AOSP variations. All the teams collaborate together on this.
In the end, this isn't about bringing a new version of software to our phones so it can do 1001 things instead of 1000. It's about giving and giving back. Jangst123 and WHX have given to us. Let's give back. Round of applause for these two and every other dev and good person on these forums. It's not all bad

Depends on who it is. Someone that isn't a dev?
Hell No.
Whitehawk?
Honestly, no since I wouldn't have a phone to use if I did.
I'd toss a few bucks into the pool to get him one.
I think we had something going with the donation pool and for jangst123, to step up he deserves some compensation. Then again, I know he did NOT do it for the money. He did it for epicness!
The AOKP decision wasn't a surprise with milestone 6+. I honestly don't know why they would even carry devices they don't have to troubleshooting. It's just common sense to me.

Great to hear. White is a great Dev and will do something awesome, I'm sure of it.

I'm not entirely sure you understood my point. I'm just bringing awareness to what jangst123 did. Because it's buried in Page 25 of the thread and i just happened to chance on it. What are you trying to say?

Fair enough, but I was really just answering the thread topic, and didn't find the relevance to the content in post. I'm just saying that I'd probably not give my S2 away. Unless I had another phone I could use ....

The thread topic was a rhetorical question -.- maybe I should put that in the OP

I knew what you meant. If you had a spare T989 would you give it back to the community?

Sure I would. All my old phones (symbian convert) are laying around somewhere. The Android community is pretty great

Probably a good idea.
I suppose it's more of an editorial and not something to discuss.

Heck no i love my s2 and especially since the s3 isnt that big of a upgrade we could run their ported software soon

I mean I don't know what to say to the fact that it's painfully obviously that you read no further than the first line of the OP..

It's great to see a community coming together, but at the same time people donated the first time WH got the S2.
What happened to that phone?
And now people are donating for another one!.!
Also what about Roman, didn't he get donations for a S2?
Thank god the price for a S2 has dropped a lot. Lol.

Regardless I've never HAD to pay for any Rom I've flashed. Should there be a limit for how many phones are donated to any dev? Developers provide a free service in their free time.... for all us addicted flashaholics.
