Childs play...

Ive been customizing my own roms ever since i got my first one. Its common sense. How many have i posted and put my name on? 0. It was not my work,so i would never try to take credit and put my name on a product that i had less than 1% participation in the creation of. If that was the case id have @ least 12 roms of MY titling. I honestly think its sad that ppl think they can name a rom,that:
1.)You cut and pasted. A 7yr old could do that.
2.)Is clearly less than 1% your own work,especailly offending the guys that do the REAL work to make our roms,Toast,Flipz,Gbhil and crew...
3.)Is free to anyone through AOSP,android open source project.
Give credit where due and dont rename your own version. If you cant cut and paste some files to customize* your rom,you shouldnt even be here. Doing something thats SIMPLE COMMON SENSE should not permit you to steal someone else's hard work and butcher it. Honestly WHERE WOULD ALL THESE WANNABE ROMS BE W/O ALL THE BIG DAWGS(Gbhil,Toast,Flipz,...etc)hard work and coding? Oh wait,they wouldnt have ANYTHING to add a stupid cheesy name to.

how many times are you gonna copy and paste that post?

Do you want attention new guy?

all you just did was copy and paste... a 7 year old could have done that.
we already read this.

Hey, I wanted to bring a few things to your attention.
One, this is open source, I could do whatever I want with it. I could change the colour and release it for all I care.
Two, is it your concern?
Three, Your spamming... excellent use of copy and paste there dummy .
Four, we act like seven year olds? LOL
If it bothers you so much, stay away from our ROMs.
Thanks, have a nice day

Your one person that should be banned let it go. Where's a link to anything you have contributed to the community?

As much as I like to see the comments aimed at this 10 year old, we should stop feeding the troll.

No.I do not need it. BTW, thanks for your reply when i needed assistance the other day. Im not new. I run my own android website and i fix android devices in the forum. I dont like to flood threads here, i normally use this site for info and feedback on roms and root issues i cannot solve myself. I just really apprecaite ppl that can do things that i would like to be able to do and flashing new roms is a bit of fun for me, and w/o their work i wouldnt be able to do this stuff until i purchase my next device. Just giving props to the rightful owners....

sorry
I was not trying to upset people. Just been thinking since ive began seeing all the new roms.

hmm....

i just don't get it?

you know i was just reviewing the tp2 section of xda, the android section i should say. i see they have a port of ubutnu for the phone now. i guess i just don't get as to why you would want it? sorta the same with us hero users wanting to try out debian on our phones? whats the point of it?
if i were a touchpro2 "and i was very briefly" user id want a full port of android like the vogue users had. i mean what zen, dzo & mission were able to do to that dying phone to breath new life into it is outstanding and deserves total respect and applause from all of us.

For anybody that doesn't want to have to read this sentence 10 times to understand it, here's a punctuated and readable version:
If I were a Touch Pro 2 owner, and I actually was for a very brief period, I'd want a full port of Android, much like the Vogue users had.

I don't get what you are trying to say....
@ubuntu, the TP2 has a physical keyboard so ubuntu would be much more practical then on the hero.
@android port for TP2, ummmmm who cares about the TP2? I used dzo's android port for a long time and I greatly respect everything that they have accomplished. It truly is amazing.

I agree.

The sole reason I didn't get the TP2 was the fact it was running WinMo.
WinMo has to be the worst phone UI ever, why the heck would anyone want to use a stylus to navigate the UI. Nevermind the fact I've never heard one positive review of Windows Mobile as far as speed was concerned.

sorry i was sick as hell yesterday and still am. thanks mr grammar nazi's!
my point was having a port of ubuntu is stupid IMO, id rather have a fully working android port that could be flashed to nand like the vogue users have. got it now?

I dunno if I had a TP2 and then upgraded to something else but still had my old TP2 laying around. I would most likely put something like ubuntu on it for ****s and giggles.

fixxxer,
wow, you've graduated from useless personal opinion posts to starting whole new useless personal opinion threads. Way to go man, you're really making progress. Congratulations.
I might have a couple ideas as to why someone would attempt to run ubuntu, debian or just about anything else on their phone:
1. just because
2. it's a challenge just to see if you can do it
3. It's fun
4. did I mention "just because"
Just a heads up: your frustration over not having the skills to do these things yourself is showing...muffintop

what crawled up your ass? what just because i posted an opinion about that app you helped create? the point of a message board is to create, help and debate. all i did was give an opinion, there is no reason for you to get all worked up. it's not like i said it was useless.

Actually, man, if you leave out the first and last paragraphs and just read his list, he answered your question perfectly. The fact that you don't get it says s lot. This is, at its base, a community of hackers (or hacker wannabes, like me). Half the reason we do ANYTHING with our phones is because we can. Just for the sheer unadulterated HELL OF IT! Kinda like choosing to do themes the hard way yourself, rather than using metamorph. The fact that some of what we do makes our phones more functional is sometimes almost secondary to the feeling of having got your hands dirty and done something yourself. It is the same thing that drives people to DIY rather than just buying the finished product at the store...even when you might have saved a buck and some time just dropping the cash.

In an attempt to bring this thread back around to topic and stop some of the bickering:
The reasons I see for doing something like installing Debian or Ubuntu on a phone are pretty simple:
1. To see what is possible
2. To find out what your are capable of
3. To find out what the device is capable of
4. To do something that no one else around you has done
In other words, why not?

Sometimes the purpose is the trip not the destination. That's how I feel about hacking our phones, anyway. 90% of the time, I don't really need to be able to access my desktop and take control of it through VNC, but the fact that I can makes me really happy. I don't need to be able to stream HD movies on my phone, but the fact that I will be able to with the evo has me excited. What color flashes on the screen when i tap an app doesn't really make a flying fvck in the long run, but I like the glassy blue, so I rip into every rom I download and change it. To me, that is the why that answers your initial question. To someone for whom the end functionality is the ultimate goal, the this may not make any sense, but to someone else who enjoys the process of creation and tinkering, the opposite might be true. And in a community of devs and hackers, i think you are likely to find as many or more of the latter than the former.

And people like you are reasons why other devs dont like to help us out. Give credit, and most of the time, they allow. I used 5 diff devs stuff in my release. Got permission from all of them. They said, thanks for asking. Thats all it takes. Its called respect. And working together.

alright look, im not fighting for him only stating that this is a forum dedicated to doing things your told you can't, correct? i don't agree with the fact that hes not giving credit to other devs or posting links back to original files. trust me i understand how having things stolen feels. but in his defense mabey speaking with him instead of accusing might be a good idea. Apple is suing GOOGLE for stealing ideas. honestly our phones seem to have been built around stolen ideas,
mabey im just playing devils advocate here but, you really have to ask yourself do you want to feel like steve jobs today?

It's so that anyone can adapt it however they want. I could even care less about credit, since that's the OP's choice.
And being that it's such a low level hack, all it takes is a little bit of tinkering to figure everything out.
No need to grill him.

nothings stolen. i found that myself when i was looking for some files myself.
it may have been posted already but i didnt know about it.

Thanks for giving credit to decadeance. Just FYI for anyone else that might be wondering, using the work of others without giving due credit IS against the rules of XDA-Developers.
12. Using the work of others.
If you are developing something that is based on the work of another Member, you MUST first seek their permission, and you must give credit to the member whose work you used. If a dispute occurs about who developed / created a piece of work, first try to settle the matter by private message and NOT in open forum. If this fails then you may contact a moderator with clear evidence that the work was created by you.
Convincing evidence will result in copied work being removed. If there is no clear evidence you created the work then in the spirit of sharing all work will remain posted on the forums.
These rules apply to all software posted on XDA unless that software comes with a license that waives these rules.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Since this was resolved in a matter of which did not require a moderators attention then no warnings will be issued since it seems to have been an honest mistake. It is true that this is OPEN SOURCE however that does not mean that you can claim rights to another developers work. We are striving to aid others in achieving more with the community but a house divided against itself cannot stand. Work together, treat each other with respect, resolve issues/problems/differences via private messages whenever possible to keep the forum from getting out of hand and always remember to follow the rules.
Thanks for your time.

I'm just trying to say don't flame the guy.... it's not like he asked which is your favorite case in this forum =)
If/when I have a question about development I always ask here...... it seems like Q&A is more like reading the manual, not really mod or fw or rom questions. Please feel free to correct this if I am mistaken, but look at the threads in the q&a.....

Sometimes peeps are quick to throw stones.
By the way, I too hope this gets developed. But maybe a better question would be: "what can I (the collective us) do or how can I contribute in order to develop this?". Not just leave it to others. There are many ways to contribute:
READ, Learn to code, Contribute to your favorite developers monetarily, etc etc.

I think it is innovative. A phone app that can function like reason, fruityloops, protools... Mixing, autotune, live record. 5 years ago that would of been impossible. In 5 more it would of already of been done. The technology we hold in our hands is pretty amazing. IS it a phone? a camera? a router? supercomputer(they done this to a phone at MIT)
Yeah i may of wanted to have that on my phone but realistically , of course not.
To be honest it was a little slow today here(Zzzz) blah blah blah same questions 10000s of times over and over. I was just trying to get the creative juices flowing!! So we fix the lag and we have hsupa and froyo is here whats next. In the end Apps are what this is all about all the boring redundant lag fixes oc is just the hard work we go through to get to taste the icing! So thank you guys for doing all the hard work cause the icing is just going to be that much better...

Seriously, man.. Relax. We all appreciate forum moderation but there no need to be harsh.
Speak to people in a manner that you'd ask to be spoken to.

There is enough talk around here about fixing the minor issues with the phone. I'd like to read talk about apps, ports, and dare I say it peripheral support. There is a discussion over at the vibrant forum about adding the camera for video calls and another about adding the camera externally via the usb port. I find that more interesting than fixing the gps that actually doesn't work bad while I'm driving.
It would be nice to see powerful music apps on android. The iphone has a pretty powerful amp modeler available for guitar, just an adapter and a pair of headphones and you have a practice amp in your pocket that actually sound really good.
If the question is why, the answer is because you can. These phones are crazy. 5 years ago I had friends with computers that weren't this fast. Hell my computer was only 1.7 ghz and. In 2 years I'd like to be able to replace my pc completely.

NICE! I'm going to snag that demo! Good find!

this would be an AWESOME app

I'm going to jack my own thread. If you would like to post up anything relating to cool apps or concepts feel free.
How possible would it be to have windows running on Android and not the other way around. I know the hd2 can run these two fine operating systems in a dual boot. (picture included) Is it because the drivers have not been developed for WINDOWS??? It would seem easy obviously not. I would love to have windows 7 on this phone because after seeing this!!!! (picture included of the iphone) then i got to thinking that gaming on this would be awesome. The phone can be used as a screen cause it gay as hell to have to literally touch the screen to hit a virtual joystick or button. I know windows mobile 7 is going to have xbox 360 app of some sort, i dont know the extent of it. I know eventually they incorporate real 360 titles to be play on windows mobile phones. However I dont see why we couldn't in the future play mobile games with this very same concept done on the iphone a windows dual boot for the android OS. Seriously though if Microsoft plays this right they could dominant the phone market again and Personally i'm not a fan boy but i loved to play come mobile Call of duty on my dual boot android!!!!

Back to the original topic, aren't there alredy sequencers out for the android market?
That awesome looking groovebox one looks promising, But googling "android sequencers" brought up ULoop and ReLoop, which seem to be capable of making beats on the fly.
Unless I'm missing something here.

i wish beatmaker by intua could be ported to android

Are you a moderator? Hmmm...you are not. Report people and let the mods do the moderating. It seems like an interesting idea and it is a development question.

Im glad someone made this thread! I downloaded the Groovebox program (paid version, only $4.44 US) and its pretty cool but has a long way to go. Settings you declare in the mixer wont save when you save your song so you have to reset them next time you load it which is really annoying. Also, the drum kits all sound 90% the same, some have conga drums and such but overall they are all the same sound with minor effects added to them but with the paid version they say you get future updates so hopefully they will release some revamped kits and fix the save issues. Also, some new bass effects would be fun too.
Overall, its fun to mess around with but probably not worth buying till they come out with some more features for it. VERY basic right now.

[THINK TANK]backlight notifications on bottom buttons from i9000... port possible!?!?

backlight buttons used for notifications on the i9000
i remember seeing this before in the theme and apps section and it got ruled out for the vibrant because of kernel issues i think it was... but they figured it out for the i9000, so i hope we can see this on our phone... soon.
btw... please dont flame and tell me this is in the wrong thread, because it will get more views here... and its in this section of the i9000 thread.

Try this, it works like a charm: http://www.appbrain.com/app/com.led.notify

thanks... ive seen that in the market... but unless theyve changed the battery drain and the using home button to power the phone back up... it doesnt feel like a complete solution. atleast for me...

well the source is there from the i9000 build, sounds like you need to get to work to fit your needs.
oh and it's in the development section in the i9000 section because there is DEVELOPMENT done, unless you plan on doing something this should go in the Q&A section.
flame on!

Who cares if its in the wrong section or not? If everyone posted crap like that then nothing would get done with our phone so take that **** elsewhere. Anyway back to the topic at hand, just reading over the first post it seems as tho the dev who made that is willing to port it to other Galaxy S phones. Anyone try contacting him yet?

woww! a fantastic 4 reference...
youre sooooo clever
ive never heard anyone use that out of context like that before
what a clever clever girl you are
i know how these threads work.
and in case you havent noticed!!!
the i9000 is a GALAXY S,
now look at the back of your phone
it probably says GALAXY S
hmmmm... soo strange how that works.
it isnt my fault that samsung decided to put
out 5 different versions of almost the same
effing phone.
i do my part for the community anyway i can,
and i know as well as anyone else, the q and a
section doesnt get as much attention... so,
hopefully this thread will bring to life some actual
development since this can and should be port-able
id do it myself, but obviously i cant...
which is why i posted.

The i9000 is a variation of the Galaxy S just as the Vibrant, Epic and so on are. Each may be similar but no two are alike, if they were you wouldn't be here requesting someone do something you are too lazy to figure out and learn yourself. And yes it's strange how THAT works.
hmmmm... soo strange how that works.

Is it anyones fault? There is plenty of documentation available on android and there is the source for this project, why not contribute?

Do your part by not being one of the members that purposely posts things in the wrong section. If the moderators did not feel the need for separate sections we would have one general forum.
And the reason the Q&A section doesn't get "much" attention is because people like you refuse to post there.. why would someone looks there if you continue to post here?

Change the thread title to include [Think Tank] then he can't complain anymore.

because people like you are on a high horse... you arent a mod.
you arent the xda police. id just like to bring it to an experienced persons attention who could do it faster than it would take me to learn. why? cause i work and have a life that doesnt completely revolve around xda.
so why dont you go flame someone elses thread little lady... as you can see, there are some ppl here that would like to accomplish the same thing id like to see. which is to get more functionality out of my phone, since it is obviously possible on other "similar" models.
to the mods. if im out of line.
pardon me.

Really? Isn't the whole point behind a Think Tank to get people in here and try and get development done? Hmm seems to fit this thread perfectly. So what exactly is the problem now?
Edit: That configurable backlight timeout thread has nothing to do with this topic, It's a separate topic that in no way involves using the backlights as notifications. The other thread isn't a Think Tank so go flame in that one if your that hell bent on being useless to getting this to work on our phones.

it's a shame when someone takes the time to show you that what you posted has been done twice now but instead of bumping one of the old threads you create another one.
What was I for thinking about the actual guidelines around here.
Good day
p.s. yes smart guy posted here and still not anything done.. I feel like I should be smacking my head on the desk right now while typing to you.

sounds like a great idea... i guess im just hoping for an update.zip or apk possibly... like in the other thread... so that we can unlock this feature with ANY rom... but im glad to see people taking proactive steps... ill be sure to mention it on the samsung website...
sorry for the negativity previously in this thread... its just kind of sad to throw a disclaimer up, only to find someone try to tear it down... its unnecessarily negative when the out come of this thread is supposed to be positive.
