[REQ] Minimal Elegance

bcparker over at sdx-developers has created a simply amazing samsung moment theme called minimal elegance. Anyone interested in porting it? I tried using some of the autoporting scripts with no luck so far.
I'd post a link but I don't have permission yet... haven't been a member of the forum long enough.

That's one sexy theme. Can't post links either sorry.
I particularly like the dialer.

I can always be persuaded 2 people wanting the same thing use not enuff

Thanks to everyone expressing interest. If any of you could post the link to the sdx board (like I said can't yet) that might help drum up some interest.
Much thanks!

Thanks for the link!

I'm very sorry you had a poor experience. My quick search didn't find the issues you referred to, but I have seen instances of members acting ungrateful in the ROM/customization community, and it upsets me every time. The developers are creating all this and giving it to the users for free. There's no reason for complaints. If I don't like something, I simply don't use it. I still appreciate someone took the time to give me another option. If that wasn't your experience I apologize on behalf of everyone involved. Much thanks for what you did contribute before you were convinced otherwise.

{MIUI needs DEV} HELP?

If you havent heard yet our friend N_I_X has decided to pass on the porting and fixing of MIUI for the INC. to another developer. I am posting this without his permission but based on his posts he is willing to partial assist and release his "notes" on MIUI to whoever is intersted in taking it on. I know there is alot of people that love this ROM but as of yet there has been no one that has contacted him willing to step up.
I am posting this becuase i really enjoying running this rom and would still like to see updates for it. { warning} from what N_I_X has said is it can be frustrating at times because of not having source and also language barrier..
Please if you are interested in taking over let us know or if you are interested in seeing someone take over second my notion for it that why interested devs will see the interest on our part... I have faith in the INC community that we will find someone. Thank you! ***** Hopefully this is the right section if not please move****and I apologize

good luck.. it's a good rom, but def needs more support

Considering taking a look..with a baby on the way I'm not sure if I have the time though.

this has been my daily and I'd be very sad to see it stop getting updates/improvements ... if I knew how to, I would pick it up. I hope someone does.

Let's petition nix for one more update. Encore nix! Encore!!

He said he might check in on miui but that's about it. So I think the encores a no go... truth is the latest from him is very stable...

warttak has agreed to take on the MIUI Incredible development. He said to watch for a post on the MIUI-dev forums tonight.

Donation thread for possible continued development

first off. no, i dont want to make the donations myself, i just thought that if we get a donations thread rolling it will be easier to dum up all of it for when or if we can get some development rolling.
to start off the donations im willing to pledge 100$.
if users/mods think this isnt appropriate to post here just let me know and ill ask it be removed.
thanks in advance

100 views and no replies, I'll get in on this myself if we're making a pledge thread, I'll pledge $50 if we get solid working CWM etc, or if we make the goal the cost of an unlocked device I'll chip in the same amount. If one of the mods or interested devs wanted to start a chipin.com pledge, we could actually start collecting the money.

This thread confuses me.

It was moved from the Glide sub forum to the general one. This thread is for the Captivate Glide which is a relatively new phone with not much development going on for it yet and Team Hacksung has expressed interest in porting CM9 to it if we can get them a device.

OP, lilbucky,
You may want to clarify the title of this thread to avoid confusion and to help others with the Glide to easily find this thread.

I guess that's what happens when two completly different phones get shoved together for no reason.

All current 989 Devs, PLEASE READ!

I've been a "watcher" too long in this community. It's time to contribute back what I can.
I have a server doing nothing, and I'd love to waste as much bandwidth as I can.
If you're a developer for a ROM, and you'd like to have PHP, FTP, perl, sql, etc support, please reply to this thread or message me directly, and I'd be more than happy to get things set up for you ASAP. This is a new device, with a fantastic development community, and I think every developer deserves a chance for success. An email address, along with a website will help accomplish this for determined individuals. I don't plan on ever letting go of the domain names, or the server that I have.
Cheers you guys.
P.S. > Also, if someone wouldn't mind helping keep this thread active by posting articles or links to publishers with books available to teach me how to develop, that would be fantastic. I know this fits a little closer with "General", but its important, I think, that developers get involved in this, because of the huge possibility of misinformation.

Good idea +1

I was really, really hoping this thread wasnt going to be moved to general, because now it is probably never going to be read by the developers. If by any chance you know someone who is developing roms for the sgsii, or how to get ahold of people who are, i would love to spearhead this project and get their hosting up asap. I would love to have a website for your rom, a central hub for tools, resources, and links, but i dont have any of the web development knowledge or background to even know what cms software would work best. Ive installed hundreds of vbulletin boards back in the day (when pirating vbulletin and ipb was fun). I know how to use cpanel very well, how to modify apache and php settings, and how to setup mysql, but i guess ive been out of the loop too long. Help me out guys. Lets get a website going for these awesome developers.

Okay, perhaps a new approach. Would someone like to try and help me get a website going with all the important files for the 989? (ODiN, radios, stock roms, drivers, etc).

If your looking for someone to gather and upload and get descriptions and such I would be happy to. If your looking more for someone to make zips and such that is a little out of my league.

I think I'm going to need to install some sort of software on my server to host the downloads. Then the guides and descriptions all fall into place. I'm just not sure. I think it'd be a good idea.

I suggest posting on skyrockets (I727 sister device nearly identical) forum as well, in order to really stir interest...

you might have not noticed, but the DEVs do read the General forum as well
in fact we keep asking people to keep the comments on General, unless they are of development value, then they should reply back to the DEV topic
but as usual newbies never listen

He should have just added some credits. His roms were better than those he "borrowed" from. He also updated far more frequently and was always responding to questions.
What a shame.

Im not against the rules or anything else Im sure they are helpful for the bigger picture.:cyclops: I am however stating its ironic that he did better with there stuff than they did. IMO when a dev does that its usually buggy or simply not as good , his roms were always up to date and he had stuff out much quicker than others.
At the end of the day everyone here is modding someone elses work to begin with so getting banned for using a modification to an open source or Samsung based software is just weird to me.
Isnt that why theres two dev forums to begin with ?

Just so that we are all clear on this subject. He is not Banned.
Like someone above said, he still has a ROM in one of the Note sections (can't remember if NI or NII atm). I am one of the Mods over those sections as well so I have seen his threads and activity.
Now I don't know what exactly went down and why the thread was locked and even if I did, I'm not sure I can speak freely. I was called away on a family emergency that weekend and when I got back it was locked and the other thread about this was in full swing. It seemed like a kang job, but as I said, I do not know the particulars. I am only posting in this thread to let you know that he was not banned and chose to host his S3 ROM elsewhere.
Please don't make this thread into a pissing contest about who's was better and random speculation about what happened. Plus, if he is not here to defend himself, he shouldn't be attacked (not saying that any of the ones that posted attacked him in any way *more for future posters, if this thread stays open).

Seems like you're arguing semantics. Only thing I see wrong is not giving credit. (ill surrender the end point that it's xdas way of managing things and that's fine.)
However you and everyone else are working off Google and to a lesser extent Samsungs work to begin with he only borrowed what you tweaked in someone else's code to begin with ;don't know why devs feel they should have special treatment. Having followed android *devs* since the early G1 days I find the current state rather egotistical and counter productive at times.
Again I say... I understand about not giving credit but alluding to him being a thief is ironic considering what is actually being done.
You say I have no idea, that's fine perhaps I don't . But proclaiming thievery with exclamation points doesn't exactly educate or inform anyone of anything let alone show that I'm in the dark on the matter.

Credit is the least he can ask. Do you know or even have an idea how long it takes to make a rom? De compiling recompiling apks tweaking smali. **** I tried to theme a couple pngs and 15 toggles and it took me a couple days just reading to figure out what to do! They have to edit a lot of files. It's long tedious work and they do it all for free!!
Regardless if it was based off Google code. They edited and made it unique. It is now theirs. For example for school you have to write a paper about Lincoln. You research about Lincoln and final write your paper. What your saying is that the paper you wrote is not yours because you pretty much just reworded facts you read online. (provided you didn't copy paste) the paper is now your own paper that you can claim rights too.
