Develop Bugs

ICS General Discussion Thread.

I've Made this thread in par with the [Dev-only] ICS development only thread so that all questions,comments and or even THANKYOUS can be posted here. Please do try and keep this thread alive without any idiocy (spam). DO NOT post in the Dev thread u less u have actual development. It doesn't matter how argue-mental the post become as long as it still always is related to ICS. As long as everyone just stops making new threads about ICS.
You may spam ur ICS needs here. Enjoy.
I will update this op with any Information regarding our phone and ICS whenever it comes available.

Alright guys, I should not even be saying anything but Im going to anyway. I know many of you are tired of waiting for ICS and feel like we are the odd man out while everyone else gets a taste of the glory. This is in fact not the case! I'm not going to name names, or comment on anything else, but I will say that development is VERY much alive for this phone. Its also allot closer than any of you think. Trust me, there is a very tallented group of people who are close to making this dream a reality.
Me making a comment in this thread does infact violate what this thread was intented to do and for that I'm sorry. My intention is just to inform you that we too shall taste sweet victory soon. My only request is that we move non-development related questions and comments to the Q&A or general subforum so we can keep this thread clean for future use. I look forward to basking in the sweet taste of a delicious sandwich with all of you very soon

Oh yeah, I forgot that one got closed.

ICS ICS, where art thou?

What can I do to help the devs working on this project?

I'm starting to think his phone won't get it. Hell the old Droid got it and we have hardly anything going on for this phone.

According to someone of a dev level ICS is extremely close so just be patient.

As for you. Read my comment above Mr.negative. If ur running Cm7 or MIUI then u literally just hypocritically commented on yourself. (in a far fetched way) =P

Also there are plenty of good ROMs in the dev thread.
Sent from my E4GT using xda premium

I don't necessarily understand it. I've used ics and it's pretty good, but the roms we currently have in the dev section are really awesome. Yeah, ics has some great tweaks that I look forward to coming to this device, but I'm pretty content and happy with the current roms and development we have. Thanks to all the devs!

I'm sure ICS will be here. No need to show negativity. Just have patience

Im sure they dont want to give us something half done. Wait till they have a stable build then they will drop it.
My guess now that chris41g will drop ics hes been aful quiet

Call me what you want. I have the money to get a pics phone. I just don't want it. I have ICS on my zoom. Also don't make a thread about discussion of ICS if you don't like hearing others opinions.

I'm pretty sure they will release a ICS update for it. The community will more than likely release one first though.

Samsung will have one, but it will have TouchWiz. But a lot of us want either pure ICS or a CM9 build, ya know?

The only reason im waiting ics for my epic is native otg support..

Thanks for the welcome guys. The new malice will be a 4.0.x build. I will be working closely my brother br1ck'd. I'm going to take my time with this build, so it might be a while before I release anything.

No, he is still rocking the vibrant. But he has cooked an ics rom already so he will be of great help to me. Heathen is mia. I haven't heard from him in almost a year. He was a great guy, always down to help out. I miss him.

Why I love XDA

Best Devs and Themers bar none can be found right here.
As someone who has trouble holding onto a device for very long (as referenced by me many times already) I've since found a serious love for (addiction to?) custom ROMs and themes. And here at XDA there are so many to choose from that every time I flash a new one I feel like I have a whole new phone in my hand. Usually by now I'm beating back a major craving to buy a new device but for once, since my smartphone buying days started, I'm content with my phone and okay to wait and see what's next. (just hate hearing about it for months in advance lol)
I hope you know the tireless work you guys (gender non-specific) put into these ROMs/Themes does not go unappreciated. If I'd paid more attention to XDA in my OG EVO days I might've avoided the mistake that was EVO 3D and enjoyed my OG EVO until my upgrade (the E4GT) became available.
Major kudos to all of you and thank you, thank you for your hard work and dedication.

Well said, my wife seen some of these roms and the themes that go with them then looked at her stock e4gt and finally told me to root and install blazer 4.1 ROM with ics sherbet theme. Now she has a new respect for xda and all the hard work these devs and themers put in for us all.

I feel ya. My girl just installed go launcher after three months and couldn't believe all the different things she could do. I know its bad of me to not mention it to her sooner but just like noobs in the forums, I knew I would be doing double time to help her. This way she moves into it at her own pace per se. I know I'm in for it when ICS is released. Even though it will have the same touchwiz feel, I can see that the reversed "ok" or "cancel" is gonna be enough to open a can. If you know what I mean. Lol.

Yep!
XDA = Good stuff (especially the E4GT community)

I agree. The Et4g made me want to contribute. Everyone is friendly and they are a bunch of funny smart asses (You know who you are) Lol. I actually feel like i fit in. Plus is bar none the best SGS2 device across every other carrier.

Thanks for bringing that up because along with the Devs and Themers I really should've added the every day ordinary posters here on XDA. Many of you guys make me laugh, often and a lot, but you also help me along in the learning process.
So my thanks to all of you as well.

Noob question on ROMs

I've been a lifelong iphone user and bought the Note 2. Rooted it and installed the Jedi ROM (before I knew what a ROM even was) and I love it.
My question is what is YOUR favorite ROM on the Note 2?? I'd love to hear your opinion because I'm so new to this world of Android I'd like to learn as much as possible...
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using xda premium

Honestly,you cant go wrong. Try them out, each are different. You'll be amazed when you try each one and see which you really like.

Just... remember to follow the steps provided for you. Always keep a good backup. And when possible, check md5 sums.
I've seen this increasingly in the last few weeks, but ALWAYS double check to make sure you are flashing a ROM made for the correct device.
Toooo many bricks lately.. even a few vets.
Also, no offense, but the previous iphone people that I have had the pleasure to help -- they seem to think that things are going to be done for them somehow.
Its good to remember: You are responsible for what you download and flash.
I've seen you in the Jedi thread, and technically -- You are not a "noob", but rather a "newb" -- if you like signifiers.
just my $0.02.
Oh... haha, and I agree. Flash away and find what you like best!! Everyone is different. There will never be a "best" ROM to everyone

There is a glossary here on XDA, but my search is down.
Regardless, Google is my second wife lol :what:

http://www.mac-forums.com/forums/schwebs-lounge/34237-newb-vs-noob-friendly-reminder-differences-connotations.html
The definitions in the XDA thread I am talking about is exactly the same -- only less detailed.

Farewell, fellow Galaxy users

It's truly been a pleasure being a part of this community. There's so much development and support here. Despite a lot of bickering and nitpicking from certain people, it was definitely beneficial for me because I learned a lot. I'll miss my S2 but the HTC One was just too good of a phone to pass up. Thanks to all the devs and mods. You guys don't get thanked enough so long everyone!

Both phones are amazing. You can't go wrong wrong either way. The only cons I can think of is AT&T locking down the Ones boot loader and the GSIV possibly not getting official Cyanogenmod support.

In the GSIVs defense, its amazing compared to the s3. Its much better all around, with hardware that more than doubles the US GSIII variants and a design much more reminiscent to the Note 2 than the GSIII. The One is amazing too. Don't know about the build quality anomolies though.. the GSIV may be plastic but it sure doesn't have build quality issues like the HTC One.
