[ROM][ICS] i9100 Android 4.0 port (For real!..)The General chat and Q&A section

Hi guys
As i said in the post in the thread in android development i thought i create this thread so all you guys can leave any messages you want to the devs who are trying to port ICS for us on our beloved S2...I am only doing this to help them out so that thread does not get to cluttered with thank you messages and people asking how long its going to take for it to port or saying stuff like it will nice to have it the weekend and stuff..
Leave all your messages good, bad(not rude though)or just pointless ones in here and leave that one for dev talk...So that way they can speed things up and then we will all enjoy a bit of ICS if we do it this way....
Ive got nothing to gain by doing this all i want is just like everyone else the ICS on our handset...But this way by opening this thread at least we can have our chats here than on the dev one..anyway happy chatting and leave what you want on here for the guys...
Enjoy
If you want to follow the progress of the porting over just click on this link to see the thread....But DO NOT and i mean DO NOT leave pointless messages there only ones that you think might help the team speed things up with getting ICS to us.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1327600
EDIT:Looks like the guys have got stuck and they need the source to be able to carry on their work. I am no dev but if there is anyone who has been following my thread or the one linked to my post here please guys lend them a hand as they have been doing great strides to port it over....Much would be appreciated if anyone has more info to bring to the table and help the guys get back on track again..Many thanks
EDIT2:i have now put a link in my sig for people to read and to see if they know anything useful that they can come here and leave something useful for the devs that might help them get back on track with the project again...So if any of you know someone or you are that someone please follow the link above to the project and hopefully one of our devs can see the info..Or post it here and i try and pass over the messages...I am only doing this as i want to see the ICS as much as anyone on our handsets..so the more we can get involved the better
So just to be clear..If you have anything useful or helpful to say or give to our devs, either go to the above link and post your info or leave it here and i will try and either get them here to read it or i will PM them myself for you...Either way lets keep the project alive as we do not for sure when we will see ICS on the S2..thank you
EDIT3: Looks like the project is now dead since our devs have got stuck and need source now to carry on the work..Either way thanks to the guys for trying..

i will be the first one to say i want ics by the weekend.

Ehehe,
My thanks here ahahaha

Great idea for a thread - the other one was really getting cluttered with well meaning but ultimately useless posts. Pretty excited about this, and kudos to the devs for their hard work!
Noob question: Once we do have ICS compiled, if we wanted to flash one of the current modems (eg: on some Australian carriers, they need a specific modem to work), will that be compatible with 4.0?

just a question, i wanted to follow you on irc channel, but i can't see anybody... I put my pseudo, click join and now i can't do anything. If someone can help me ^^'

i am pretty sure that should be fine mate but first lets worry about the guys making the dream come true first and then we can worry about what modem we can use

I got the Galaxy Tab 10.1 and i agree. It should stick to tablets, no point in porting it to phones.
Looking forward to a ICS ROM

Cant wait to have ics on gs2. Its amazing to see how fast these things are going on...started with a fake topic from someone turned into real porting from hard working devs. Thx to any devs workin on it and if i got it right parra for sharing the missing dump. What about a donate button to the devs as soon as an alpha release is out?

Sounds good but someone will take an unfair share ... so maybe if it went in to a single pot and then divided equally between them after a set period of time eg 2month
Ps, not saying I don't trust them all, but i just don't want any arguments between them

thats what i meant..one account or pot whatever you want to call it and then the amount shared equally amongst them..but how do you go about setting that up though?

Well we need someone trustable who could create an paypal account. Im sure all devs have an account. After a period of time the one we chose will transfer the same amount of money to the devs...or the devs create a team together with one account...or idk...there are alot of opportunities...we just need to find the best idea...

Hi guys!
Good news for us, that not only Texasice and Saumaz (and everybody who is involved in that two build) working on an ics update for our phones.
There is a project named BamtauMod. They promises a working rom soon.
Other then that drewgaren (who is actually maintaining nexus one @bamtaumod) said that will be an aosp rom after that.
Happy browsing, and donating to make these builds possible.

ICY NEXUS ONE Experimental Build - 419
Has anyone tried to install the experimental build? Don't know why the developer does not have it in the development section. Without it in the development section, it would be hard to try because how to post questions for the developer.

I've tried it. After 20 hours i got one softreboot, and one SoD. But the rom is generally fast, worth trying out.

How to activate App2sd on this version..

Hmm, like the other WIP Sense 4.0 ROM which claims to have had a ROM booted for a few months now, but for some reason they haven't released it to the public? Anyway, hope you guys can do wonders with this

why don't you just release a very alpha version?
then we can help and we can get a taste of sense 4

becuase its top secret

Exactly. Respect to them for not claiming 'oh we have had it booting for two months but we have other projects so we aren't releasing it yet' because that's just BS.

As a suggestion, I would say use one of the two reserved posts for announcements. That way those don't get buried under the thread. It also gives one place to see what's new. You can always keep adding to the post (like a changelog).
Great to see Sense 4 coming to the HD2!

[JB,ROM] CM10 Experimental Nightly Builds [Unofficial]

This ROM is Pure CM10 and i do NOT do anything but compile it and upload it.
The ROM will be avalible about 6pm (i live in western australia)
Also this is my first actual Thingy so dont get mad at me plz
Sadly the CM Team Hasnt Put GT-i9100 into There CM10 Device Tree
Note if you would like a live update (a tweet) from me when the ROM is ready just tweet this to me "CM10" @androidjos .

I don't mean to s.h.i.t. on your parade brother but what does compiling something that someone else made have anything to do with original android development? I mean, I admit you're doing a great service for people who are unable to compile CM10 themselves but all you have to do is wait a day or two for TeamHacksung to make a few changes then repo sync and then compile. This should be in general discussion at the very least.

You should add "unofficial" to the thread title. It's currently a bit misleading if you ask me.
Plus, you should ask a mod to move this to the "Android development" section.

This morning I tried Cyanogenmod10 (v4.1.1) in my sgs2 and given me some poor results:
Total 4150 vs. 5880 AnTuTu of I9100XXLQB
and 2420 vs. 3750 Quafrant of I9100XXLQB.
So far I have not seen any problems other than that I see very slow the JB and drains much battery.
I wait for a more successful version.

Out of curiosity, do you think you could do builds with the Linaro toolchain? Would be different from the other builds.

I won't really test these, first because he is really like a noob (no offence in any kind) as I remembered so much spamming question in Jelly Bean threads before CM10 released, second because I have own box to compile CM10 with latest changes (or prefer to use more experienced devs builds like PieR's or D4rkn3SyS's), third this isn't any helpful for CM10 developers and not any more for users, you won't probably know how to fix any problem.
I'm not saying I'm better either, but some porting teached me something and I don't want to publish my work, just to don't read under it what's not working/is bugged 100x and people flaming & asking the same with new nightly & flaming again. Yeah, but for people who can't compile ourself, this is good just in cas they want up to date CM features.

good luck mate

I want to donate Galaxy Note

Hello all
I am waiting for Note II to be delivered. If I will be happy with it I want to donate my old Galaxy Note to someone. By someone I mean very good developer who did a lot to community and maybe lost its phone, maybe CM10 team needs test device, maybe Chainfire as he is amazing developer ooor maybe PA team needs test device.
What do you think ?
cheers

wow, it's really good of you.
But I think it will be much better if you donate your Note2 for further development.

well a great idea
i vote for CheckRom team their note got damaged and they stopped ics development... here is official text
Please Note!
There will be no release of a CheckRom ICS for the Galaxy Note.
The reason being that the Note used for development was damaged during an accident that one of our devs had, and was beyond repair.
We will continue to support our current roms for the galaxy note, but there will be no further development at this time into ICS for the Galaxy Note!
If things change it will be announced in our forum!
Sorry for the disappointment, but these things happen!

Well I had 2 note's at one time. Sold one to Chadrick.7 and the other...well..
I gave my other working note to a friend of mine, who was in need of a phone. He had dropped his and cracked the screen, and it wouldn't work anymore. So since I had a few devices at the time, I let him use mine. And now I just use my ATT branded S3.
However I still deeply miss my note. It has a special place in my heart . So that's why I said I would love to have another note. Cause yea. Cannot get a hold of that friend anymore. He "vanished" . Amazing how that happens.

Isnt it strange how "friends" can vanish when they have gotten s much from someone? =(

Sorry for the OT :silly:
PS: I think its very generous of the OP to want to donate his Note :good: Be sure to think long and hard about it, Dont just give it to anybody ! Make sure they will respect it and work very hard on continuing development !!
Good luck, See you soon over in the Note 2 forums :good:

Who ever you decide is your decision, But all the maintainers of the N7000 for the CM team, already have one
On a side note, I build for 5 different devices. Even though I don't have an N7000 at the moment, I still develop for it, and besides. I want to attempt an Asylum Paranoid Android. And its sorta hard without a note
Edit: Plus it would be an awesome post wedding gift :highfive:

Hey
I contacted the main dev of PA molesarecoming I think since CM10 team do not need n7000 (I got the confirmation via PM) The next in line would be the main PA developer
