This is a thread where people can post the amount of money they are willing to donate to the devs which succeed to port the Sense UI on the SGS II.
Starting with 20€ from me
Total so far: €85 + £60 + $275= $479.96
£10 for sense
Get a HTC anyway sense UI suck so hard !!
Maybe you should offer a bounty rather than a bonty.

I'd pay a tenner for that, maybe more.
You guys do know that it will never happen. HtC is very protective of their UI. Can't count how many sense lookalikes have gotten C&D orders due to working to much like sense. Not to mention you missing needed drivers to make it work as well as the new sense can't be decoded completely.
I have to agree with the post above. However, as I have experienced many times with my old HD2, you never know.
Doubtful nonetheless.
Therefore I will give £20 if someone can prove me wrong.

Yes my friend.
You should read that topic, because along the discussion we take the decision to make a "Bountythread", so this topic is to help the project SENSE.
Thanks for yor advise.

Just out of curiosity, is there a standard or general amount people donate to developers? Is any amount too small? Like, if you were to donate a few dollars, would that be frowned upon, or is literally any amount cool?
Im sure anything is appriciated! I have donated $1 - $5

This ^
No amount is too small and is always appreciated.
Think of it like an app in the market with a free version and a paid version. You try it out for free and really like what you have so you're willing to pay 1-5 bucks for the paid version just because. There is no reason why donations to devs can't also work on the micropayment method.
I was surprised to find people were donating to me... I've had everything from $2 up to $15.... I've personally given from $5-$20 to developers/themers.
I think the general rule is, if you want to donate a penny, you are a good person and it would not be frowned upon.
This is a good question. I've also wondered the same in the past.
I like to think i'm buying the team or person (whoever does that particular release) a 6-pack ($6-$8). Then i go buy me a 6-pack and i flash away!

Some of you guys should hit up the Android BBQ. It's actually a big, sponsored event, but mostly the bad-ass developers we all follow on twitter.
Wish there was one in nc, or you guys were coming to the Eat Coast Game Conference (Raleigh, my wife is the pr person for it).

It has been talked a lot about donations to make them buy a Wildfire and test. You all could make some deal and donate to support them.
I took the other way and used XTC Clip. Faster.
Even if they don't have a wildfire in their devteam, I'm pretty sure when they get around to it, they will probably, it's not like they couldn't get one.
Just relax, drink a cup of tea and smoke a cigarette and calm down on that topic!

But do they develop unrevoked for wildF 2.2.1..????????
AnyWay,

I am waiting.............
I have never seen so much disrespect for other people`s work in my life.
If YOU want it so much, make it yourself, or get an XTC Clip.
If not, stop whining, they will release it when THEY want it, IF they want it.
I think they don't work on it..... I am pretty sure because there are many other phones right now to work on. I didn't want to wait any longer so I bought an xtcclip and it work amazing fast and easy...... but it's a good thing to show respect to the people of unrevoked.... they made good things. So wait long or buy a clip.........

Oh don't be so melodramatic, there is no disrespect its simply a collection of signatures to confirm a healthy need for it, if they decide enough people want the software then they might just make it, a thread like this is simply asking the developers to make it. that is what the forum is for, haven't you noticed?
the logic in your argument suggests that software hacking tools are unnecessary, there in this forum is unnecessary, everyone should just go out and buy expensive hardware, with money they more often then not do not have. whats more not everyone is a software coder. perhaps you think people who require help from those with the know how should just get lost?
your rant here makes no sense.
Asking for help is one thing, whining about it is an entirely different matter.

Thoughts?
I'd certainly donate.
It's an acer thing...i dont think money will help..
should help if we make a list with people that want to donate for the problem might draw a good crowd...
it might help even more to get enough donations together to buy a device to send to a well known developer. usually where the problem lies is that they do npt have money to go and buy another device since they have already invested in other ones. once a really well know developer gets their hands on the device we have is when big things start to happen. you just gotta find one willing to accept the device and hack it.

Yes, it'd be great to have a custom honeycomb rom especially since the source has not and never will be released (until ice cream sandwich, anyway).
I'd be willing to front some clams for the cause...I'd love a good custom ROM. Thats the whole reason I'm keeping my Gtab even though I got my Acer...I like to tinker with stuff and see what happens.
I was thinking about this myself the other day, but I've heard that XDA frowns on this behavior.

I actually have a slightly damaged but fully functional A500 that I would be willing to borrow out for a few months before I jave to sent it in for the insurance claim. I even posted the offer right up here with rather unenthusiastic replys.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1056783&referrerid=0
There is a port that has been put alot of time into and needs the handy work of some talented devs that can get this going and finished in the right direction. The Droid X port. ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1134997 )
Camera is literally a second away from getting to work and other then that that WiFi is the only thing not working to my knowledge. me and a bunch of other members have been trying to keep the thread alive and checking in everyday to see how the progress was and at first it wasn't doing anything and no one was even bothering cause of it being motoblur and doubted it could ever work/
But then team Xron came in and literally brought this port from nothing to pretty damn usable. They fixed the screen tearing, the hw acceleration and the sound. All that is working right now and only thing that needs a touch up from a dev is the Wifi. Fix that and this can be one badass mother effin Port. Can't wait for this to get finished up and everyone can enjoy it because its really that good.
All i know is that Chubbz is still working on it but Swamp Goblin has given up and thinks this is as far as the rom will go, but i don't believe that. no pun intended but he got the evo 3d now and is off to bigger and better things lol
So im asking if anyone out their, dont even have to be a Myn or Virus but someone that can put some little more progress in this and it will be finished and ready to boot up for everyone to enjoy.
Thanks for hearing me out and hopefully word gets out to the right ears and they would want to lend a hand. i know it can be done.
May the force be with you all
Quick question.....I'm a long time Android user and rooter and I remember back ineligible the G1 and MyTouch 3G days there was a motoblur port and pretty much everything was running including cams and wifi.....do you think you guys can look into those roms and see what those devs did to get it working?? I mean it may be worth a shot......

Is this port further along than the WP7 port?

Light years ahead of the WP7 port....not bashing either I would love to see wp7 work out on the Evo especially since its going to be retired from sprints lineup soon.....but of course porting an android rom with a skin on top of it to a device already running android is easier than porting a whole different OS.....
The wp7 is vaporware its like the webos port....light years away LOL. You'd probably see an iOS port before wp7. I still have my evo id love to check out this droid x port.

I have talked with MIUI US and they say that the only reason they aren't working on MIUI for the Atrix is that they dont have the device.
I would like to either:
A.) Start a fund to purchase an atrix for MIUI US.
OR
B.) Donate them an atrix from someone.
If you would like to help get MIUI on the atrix let me know. I would really like to see it ported to the atrix.
I'd rather have cm7, but I hope you guys get miui a device (simply to attract more people to the atrix)
Tell them to set up a pay pal donateable account and Ill send 5 bucks their way.
Generally if there is a cyanigen mod release they make a Miui, so once we get cm miui will likely be soon to follow.

If only someone had an Atrix or two that they didn't feel like keeping :/

Yeah. I'd recommend not bothering until CyanogenMod is available first. Considering MIUI is loosely based on CM, they're not going to budge until that's ported and working.

That is a possibility... wonder what Tenfar would think about it since he hasn't been very active lately
Once a phone is donated, it is that persons property, you can't just ask them to send it somewhere else.
Anyways, MIUI NEEDS CM7 in order to run. There is no such thing as a phone that has MIUI but not CM7, because it's not possible. Once we have a working CM7, I'm sure they MIUI team would be happy to pick this up and then receive donations after the DEV is done. Which is the right thing to do. Let's not go throwing donations at people that haven't done work yet, please. This has been a problem many times in the past
