Develop Bugs

[ROM] GingerSnap ***NEW** Beta v1.0

Hi all, I am a new Android developer and am working on my first ROM. It is based off of the 2.3.6 OTA w/ wifi calling. I am focusing on providing a clean user experience with speed and functionality as the top priorities.
I am still in the early stages of developing it but need a couple users to report their experiences with it. I have the SGH-T989, but every Android user uses their phone in a different fashion, so I think it would be beneficial to get other people's thoughts. If you are interested in testing, please post here and I will PM you the link.
About this ROM
As a student I have lots of free time to work on this ROM and about an hour a day during classes dedicated towards ROM development. You can expect this to always be a work in progress as I am not going to stop working on it.
Here is a link to the Changelog
Check it now to see what to expect in the next release!
If you want Swype themes pulled from this ROM, see here Swype Themes
For anyone with phone issues:

For anyone following my phone troubles, I found the answer. The entire problem was caused by an app called All Call Recorder Deluxe 2.0 by Andriod Labs. It worked awesome until we got WIFI calling. I uninstalled that app and now my phone is finally behaving like a phone again!

Oops, seems I forgot to delete that. I made a list of all of the features I'd like to include in this and then deleted the ones I haven't done yet. That was supposed to be deleted.

Ill be glad to test

So far, all is well and looking pretty good! Would like to see BLN support added if possible. Will put it through a full day of trenching tomorrow. I use my phone for work, so I will let you know.
Thanks!

I received an update this mourning.

I am running 2.3.6 on my galaxy s2 unrooted. It was on it when I bought it. This mourning I wake up and it says there was an update for it. So I did the update but it still says im on 2.3.6 the only thing I see different is the lock screen. I was wondering if anyone else got this and what exactly is different

True that except for that last part some of us have to use kies and dont recieve otas for some reason or other and rely on forums to know when to go check instead of checking everyday.

I didn't get an update notice this morning but I did take a minibath with my phone
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1649304&highlight=minibath

here i was hoping this would have been locked following the first response and saved OP a lot of the typical humiliation for not being on the bleeding edge of android development, guess not.

this is why if a new member of xda did get updated to ics he wouldnt post anything about it..cuz he would be scared about ppl flaming him smh

Yeah sorry everyone is having issues at the moment. I'm double checking to make sure everything got uploaded correctly. Something may have got borked in the mirroring process.
Edit: Screw the gym, i'm getting this fixed asap.

I was so excited about this.

Awesome!!!

I've always wanted to try MIUI. I'll give it a go once you've fixed the issues
P.S. Any current MIUI users have any comments about battery life? How does it compare to AOSP ROMs?

JB may be crappier, due to the fact that it is JB

How long did you wait before rooting your e4gt when you first got it?

Just that folks I'm thinking about upgrading to the S4 and of course rooting it! But how long did you wait before rooting it? I waited about 3 months before rooting my e4gt because it was the first time doing it! I got a galaxy tab 2 and had that rooted within the first week. Just want to see if there is a norm. Thanks ladies and gents.

I waited long enough to have a full charge in my battery...

1 month to root it, and 2 to have balls to flash a ROM, though this my first "real" phone and I was hesitant at first

WOW!!! Thanks you guys for the input!!!! And from some of the greats in this E4gt community!!!! :highfive:

Bought it in January (Virgin Mobile), rooted it about a month after the March 4.1.2 upgrade, and got the nerve to muck around with ROM's and modem firmware at the beginning of July.

I waited about 2 weeks

Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk 4

I actually had the phone for over a year.
Once I rooted and figured out how to flash roms, I have made up for lost time...

I actually waited about two weeks to root it. I had came from the Kyocera Rise on VM where mucking around with Pimp my ROM bricked it, and with no custom recovery or unlocked boot loader in sight its still that way.
I just wanted to be sure my bases were covered with custom recoveries and restoring methods before I dove in.

Two days... I waited for a day off to do it, and had to download first rom on a slow 80kbps connection.

So with the latest and greatest s4 I waited about a day a a half! I realized That there were some apps that I couldn't live without that needed to have root access!
Sent from my GT-P3110 using Tapatalk 2

Nowadays there are no reasons to wait. Root that baby.
(ICS days were even safe to root - flashing stuff? Different story at one point...)

got it for Christmas, rooted once I joined XDA (March)

If anyone else is interested. ..

I wasn't doing much today, now that the semester is over. So I felt like experimenting with our great phone. I think we all notice that the international models offer MUCH more currently active support. So I wanted to find out how much some of the mods and such were compatible. I flashed this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2721839, and surprisingly, so far, everything is working out ok. I would highly advise to backup a current nandroid just in case. Obviously this isnt my work, nor am I publishing this mod as in a specific ROM other than the creators. Completely on my time and my risk.
So tell me what you guys think.

Alliance ROM work with our variant as well so Im assuming this would work. Im currently working on other things for DBooster right now so could you post screen shots of it working and Phone info screen (ROM name,etc) so other may test. If it works, Ill add to Index thread in general for other to try.

@coffeehandle so you flashed just the mod and NOT the ROM, correct?? Which ROM are you currently on?? Thanks.

Yeah I found it eventually last night and flashed it but didn't like it because you can't make your own theme and you can't get rid of the speed indicator in the status bar. Restored my backup.
