Need beta testers :) - Galaxy S II General

Hi Future Galaxy S II users. I am webstar1, a well known dev in the galaxy s forums. I don't know when this phone is coming out but I will need beta testers as I will make a rom for u lot carrying on ultimate rom to its successor. My contract doesn't finish until 12 months so I wont be getting one. So I need 2 or 3 future users who will beta test for me until I gather the funds (yea im saving donations not spending on drinks) for the phone. U don't need to know anything other than know how to use clockwork recovery (when it comes out for u lot ) . So yea good day everyone.

i know ill be grabbing this phone so hit me up

sounds promising! PM sent

Sounds good, I look forward to anything the devs want to work on

Ok then

I would also be willing to help, I've beta tested Roms in the past.

I don't do porting and don't expect a stable release if it. The first galaxy still has a alpha port.

I plan on getting this phone, though I'll wait a week or two after it's out in the UK (to read reviews and such, make sure everything's okay!) and I'd be happy to try out ROMs, I love flashing!

I'll help you!

[Need Testers]

Hey guys, i live over in the Mytouch 4g forums, and i am part of Team Inferno. I am a Rom/Kernel/Modding dev on Team Inferno and we want to branch out and support other devices. I made a sense 4.0 mod that will increase battery life an performance greatly, it can be used on any Sense 4.0 running HTC devices but i need testers to...test it haha. My mod adds governors without modifying the kernel.
Positions that i am looking for
Head Tester- Will get get the results from the other testers and send them back to Team Inferno, you will also test
Tester- Just test stuff
Thanks for all your help and you'll definetly get credit!!!
Im using GB roms, but sure, I'll help. Just pm me with detailed instructions with what you would like help with and which rom or set of roms you would like to be tested. The more info the better. Especially since I'm still new.

You'll be doing ICS roms, right now, i am working on Sense 4.0 mods so use your choice of rom for that, ill pm you more info. Are you available to immediate testing?
I am.
Just be patient. Im still not used to the terminology/abbreviations you guys use (not that you have used any yet)
Just for you to have an idea. It was only last night I came across more or less how to work adb. Or something like that. Just lemme know how to install the mod.
If you need a logcat, point me in the right direction of getting you one.
Edit: Just in case, I have an Inspire.
Could you link me to the forum of the rom you guys are working on?
2nd edit: found the thread. Looks interesting.

Farewell from me.

Well after playing with the galaxy note i bought for my gf a few days ago, i decided i couldn't take it any longer so i went to phones 4 u and asked what they could do for me. They have paid what i had left on my contract 7 months early for me and given me a galaxy s2 for free on a £20.50 p/m orange contract.
Not a bad deal i don't think.
I'll still pop in every now and then though as i still have a wildfire at home and dont want to get rid of my introduction to android, thanks to everyone that has shared anything i used and for teaching me how to get the best out of my phone.

cool good choice
see you in the sg2 section

This section will miss you and all your threads and help. Good luck with your GS2.

Mate, that was quick lol. The itch took over quicker than i expected. Sg2 is prob my realistic expectation too and for about the same £pm but on 3. Keep in touch mucca and all the best with the new toy. Its gonna be like losing an arm
I was just about to post another thread but oh well
Yesterday I received my HTC One S on contracts, 25.92 p/m for 12 months, 260 or something upfront.D) I've always loved Willy, he is the best legend to date and I don't think I can sell him
Being with Willy has been a rollercoaster, I learnt about rooting through it, my first two roots were with two Wildfires. I couldn't take Sense anymore, so I got CM7, and then eventually we got CM9!! (Well done to Erwin, if I can find his donation link I will most definitely donate)
I'll still hang around on the CM9 thread and a few others, though now I'll mostly post on the One S forums, hope to see you guys there
cya
Congrats! See ya around on the S2 section!
Bye scratch and thanks to all your work.
We'll all definitely miss you here
*SNIFF*
Here goes another valuable member from the wildfire forum.
BTW maybe you'll see me soon in the SGS2 forum.
If not then I'll go for a galaxy note (I like big screens )

Thanks everyone and Congrats on the one s mate, hope you enjoy it as much as i am the s2. I thought id wait a little while before rooting but ended up rooting it today, its a bit confusing reading all the info but i ended up doing it in 3 and a half minutes without even touching my pc........
First flashed temp cwm from stock recovery, then flashed supersu to get root, after that boot into recovery and flashed siyah kernel. Full cwm, root and plenty of tweaks to play with. Just need to decide on a Rom now.
Oh...... The note is a real beast of a phone, hope you have big hands our lass doesn't.

Thanks everyone and scratch, I haven't managed to root mine yet - we don't have Revolutionary yet, and I'm scared if I root it using HTCDev they won't take my phone in for service if I ever need it. And there aren't many ROMs, most are Sense 4.0 based, except for the Alpha 10 CM9 port!

Gl with your new phone, i ditched one s because they are not shipping it with krait here and are using piece of crap s3 instead.
Really crappy move from htc.
Now i dont know which one to get, plastic fantastic samsung is not for me, all others either, so that only leaves me with htc. They ruined a perfect phone.

MIUI ROM

Throwing it out there as I have the time to pursue but not the hardware - anyone willing to part with a p3113?, I'd like to port over MIUI for the Tab2. If anyone is interested PM me.
For the love of Google, someone get this guy a P3113. Or donate so he can get one! I'll throw a few bones your way Tuesday/Wednesday.
Anyone else interested in MIUI for our tabs? If 25 of us just do $10, this guy, might just deliver something awesome.
Can, you provide us with a little more info on your dev skills; can you handle such a task? Also, a donate button, or paypal link would help your cause, getting donations.
Sent from my GT-P3113 using XDA Premium HD app
Hah' thanks for the plug. In theory this would be my first full blown rom. Ive always done the testing, never the up front work. I've gotten my tab to the point where I don't even care if JB gets ported to it. Everything works, its stable, snappy, and makes no sense to mess with it.
As for my Atrix4G...that ****s taken a beating and MIUI was my choice. There where too many minor bugs and since I want a phone that works full time, I stopped messing with that and went back to Jokers latest. Searching around I can't find anything for a 3113 and MIUI. In short, if I had something else to fart around with and get it to the point where it works as well as what I'm writing you with...I'd love to share, maintain, etc. Paying for the shorties education, sports, etc comes first...hah. took the honest approach with this one.

Well the GTab 2 is relatively a new device so it takes some time for the community to grow. As for MIUI I have seen the Gingebread version and it's far more superior to stock rom in my previous x10i, so I also like to see the Gtab ICS version of it

MIUI on the Atrix was outstanding - video cam and a few other minor issues is the only thing holding me back there. I could see the potential on a gt2 esp with a kernel mod... who knows, it's just a thought! polska dobra!
Sorry man but if you want a tab 2 then buy one. They're cheap.
Miui would be cool but it wouldn't be hard for any decent developer to port. Plus with the popularity of this tablet miui will come, just a matter of time.
i hear you - hoping some decent developer forgets to work on their nexus, xoom, kindle and picks up a tab2 instead... and gets the IR to work properly

In theory, couldn't one just take an MIUI rom designed for the Samsung Galaxy Nexus, and tweak that to work for our tabs?
Its CPU is very similar, and the GPU is the exact same.
Also this might be worth checking out aswell

I'm wouldn't dare touch the title of RecDev... but I'm interested in getting into it. I'm Gonna poke around in this... seems like everything to make this happen is sitting right there on the table so to speak.
And let's not forget that if it works on the 7.0 it can be ported to the 10.1 with less effort...
BTW, you might be interested in this thread.

[Q] Should I release it?

I've ported JoyOS on the inspire, same thing basically(unfortunately their site was down last I checked so no more updates on their end), it has a CM7.2 base. Its seems to be completely stable. Please keep in mind I've tried a few other times, this has only been because i wanted to make my own ROM for my personal use. I am by no means to the caliber of development or debugging as some of the awesome groups Ive seen over the past year. And I am trying to learn as quickly as possible about the in's and out's (coding, build prop edits, troubleshooting the whole nine as it were to keeping a rom up and stable).
So with that said, I would like to put out the port on the development forums, but am kinda weary as I am new to doing this, I may not be able to solve or answer all questions. Should I release it with what i have, keep learning, and simply state that in my intro? I saw one release of this port a long time ago, SeaPathJoyOS was the name I believe, liked it so much, that after it was stopped on dev, I made my own.
any feed back would be awesome, thanks in advance.
You can release it and see what people think of it. There may be some who can help with any issues. That's what we are all here for just remember to warn flash at your own risk.

Build from source, add a few of your own unique mods in and make it different to all the other ROMs
Usual thing really, which you know about from the s3 days
