Sorry, but this is spam. Search a bit around here and you will find that arco68, the guy who ported CM9 for Galaxy W, is trying to develop some CM9 for our device.
And the 9000 DEVs will not be very helpful as the 9001 uses a completely different chipset, porting from 9000 devices is impossible.
And least to say (although it is sad): such petitions will not change anything. Money does - for buying a beer or two for a good developer - and to buy him a device.

You are so smart

The best way to get ics on our phone is to support these guys

Maybe it would be good if arco would have a 9001

Let's try have nothing to lose.
if they could do to for galaxy fit which is much weaker i think will be possible for i9001 to

have you even read what we wrote down??

Yes i read about that. but there are other developers on here which I'm sure would help us if we address them

Perhaps open up a thread to organize donations, or a plan to secure device(s) for the developers like arco and maclaw? I am interested in donating too, but we need an organized move first.
We've got to start something, maybe we won't have mass threads about ICS and CM9 that way..

I see that are not well received by some of you sot MOD please delete my Thread

I would ddonate $20 after it's been released, and i think i'm not the only one.
Think the ammount of money that this release would generate if let's say 20% of the rom user would donate a small amount of cash.
Guessit's enough to stimulate a lot of developers to race on the delivery of ICS / CM9

You don't have to wait till it's finished. They are spending hours per day to develop something for us. I don't want to know how many hours Yarde or Skywalker already put into developing.
So if you want to spend them a coffee go ahead and donate if you can afford it.

The Galaxy S - ICS - Gratitude Thread

The Galaxy S ++R.I.P.++ ?
​
As you all know, Samsung has decided to abandon one of it's most popular childs by not delivering the sacred last Android version to this device.
But this is not the end of the story for this great phone, because the community lives.
There are many valiant people out there that are investing a lot of their free time to bring us the taste of fresh, homemade Ice Cream Sandwich.
Some of them are developers, some of them support development and deployment by providing the required infrastructure, others are committed to "real" testing and many people simple take their time to patiently answer questions, some of which have already been asked hundreds of times before.
And some people simply don't read what is written in the OP of ICS threads (or the previous post(s)). They complain, moan, request, demand, whine, ... to a point where even the most motivated people of the first category start asking themselves if their efforts are worth it.
And then there are thousands of people who can read, who try to find solutions, who know all the secrets of search engines and one never hears of them.
Why, because maybe they have not enough time to help or the questions they could reply to have already been answered hundred of times and certainly most of them do not post in the threads unless they have something useful to say.
This thread is for you guys and girls. If you have already hit the 'thanks' button and if you already donated what you can afford and you still feel like communicating your gratitude without spamming or flooding the development threads, then this is the place to do so.
Any moaning, flaming, blaming, whining and other stupid comments will be reported immediately.
Thanks a lot for your cooperation.​
Edit: rephrased the passage above, because there were some misunderstandings...
So I would like to say thank you to all the people I mentioned above.
Even though I am using Onecosmics wonderful ICS RC1 release, I do not forget people from other teams that are investing their free time in the development of ICS on the Galaxy S and related devices.
There is a lot of "parallel evolution" or "cross-species evolution" as biologists say, this means that the teams or individuals are taking inspiration from the solutions found by other teams and integrete the results of it into their own work.
I also want to say thank you to all the people involved in supporting the projects. I am unable to name all of them so if you helped supporting and deploying the releases, this Thanks is for you.

No need for any spam or flood, just go to the respective thread and hit the thanks button. More, do a donation to the developers. That's what I call a THANK YOU.
What are you on about?
What happened to this?
http://www.theverge.com/2011/12/27/2663320/samsung-galaxy-s-and-galaxy-tab-ics-upgrade-review
ics 4.0.3
onecosmic rom 4.0.3 rc2.1.1 is supercool
daily use rom
This is 'old' news.
It seems that Samsung will bring some kind of 'value pack update'. Something like an ICS theme on GB
http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_s_to_get_a_value_pack_update_instead_of_ics-news-3583.php
Some more recent news say that Samsung wont even grant us this.
http://thenextweb.com/mobile/2012/0...-deliver-value-pack-for-galaxy-s-smartphones/
Anyway, if one day Samsung will change its mind, then it will partially be due to the fluid ICS roms out there for SGS....

Agreed with donations and the thanks button.
Yet, some may feel that's insufficient and the need to just get a more personal thank you may come across. One specific thread helps with this and can't see harm in it.
I can see where this comes from so:
Thank you developers

This aint no substitute to 'Thanks button', buying a beer or donation, it is complementary.
If you dont't like this idea, then stay away.

I didn't say I didn't agree with the idea. My "no need for any spam or flood" was agreeing with the original post that you shouldn't spam the development threads with verbose thanks but instead just hit the thanks button and do a donation if you appreciate their work. Is my english that bad?
I love ics. Thanks to teamhacksung onecosmic and all the others. Before ics I was using customs samsung rooms and now I miss stock samsung camera. Hope Samsung will release one for aosp ics

+1 ICS is running very well now on beta12
Of course it's not kind from Samsung not to release ICS für the Galaxy S. No problem - next time i'll buy a phone from another manufacturer. The are a lot of.
Many thanks to the community, which brought us great things like the Lagfix, the possibility NOT to install TouchWiz and many other things i just don't remember.
Thanks.
I love ICS, I'm currently using S.U.R.F.A.C.E's version. I would like to thank all developers - teamhacksung onecosmic and all the others. I miss the old camera app and radio but I hope the open source community comes up with a solution soon.
Galaxy S is capable for ICS
Guys and Girls,
The first Galaxy S is working great on ICS. My self using Teamhacksung Build 12 now, started with build 10 and have just a few minor problems, but these problems are caused by the installed apps that cannot work fully on ICS yet. Hope that they will be upgraded soon.
Samsung isn't even giving the value pack.

You should consider that Samsung updated the phone for a long time, and gave it two major updates. I don't think there are many other companies who update longer than that. In fact, the only android devices that get really all the updates until they can't handle it anymore are the Google phones. And then you should ask yourself: do you really care SO much about getting updates all the time? If that is so, you are forced to buy a Google nexus.
Yes, it's sad that Samsung are not the angels that we thought they were. But anyone ranting that they'll never buy a Samsung phone again should get real. Really no offense, but Samsung is a company. And a company lives not only from happy customers. It lives from happy customers that buy their new products, and so they have to add exclusive features. And 2 years of updating is fair enough for me.

Dear El Aidge,
I hope you felt better after writing the above post.
I must congratulate you on your realistic assessment of Samsung as a company. I do agree entirely with you.
But next time you post in this thread, may I kindly ask you to stay on topic? This tread is not about bashing nasty Samsung or whining.
My intention was to offer the Galaxy S ICS users a place where they can say thanks to the community without flooding dev threads and without being annoyed by people that feel the need to play teacher...
Have a nice day and enjoy your Galaxy on ICS.
I want to say thanks you at all the people who participe at the ics developpement , thanks you to do that, and thanks you to share with us.

[Q] Developers for Tab 7.7

I was chatting with dizgustipated about the 7.7 and I noted the lack of developers working on this model.
Yes it's new and to be expected but what are peoples thoughts, do you know of a good dev that may be interested ?
What about an agreement to find a good dev such as Diz to donate to for the purposes of obtaining a device for the dev.
Just wish Samsung would look at doing this themselves like the did for the S2.
I know a good dev who may be interested. The question is if the guys here are ready to donate? I know i am,

Well i would donate for a experianced and a known dev for example D.O.C from HyperDroid Androidmeda
They make impressive high quality roms for example SGSII HyperDroid Androidmeda !!!
The thing is they make only roms for own devices cause i asked it already:
xenix96 said:
After no reply to my PM to D.O.C i do a post for my request ^^
I am using the HyperDroid Androidmeda @SGSII since 6 month and its amazing.
Can you guys please do a ROM also for the Samsung Galaxy TAB 7.7 GT-P6800 ?

Maybe when the ICS comes out for this TAB in 2nd Quartal. Then it will 100% worth for it.
If you want i do a thread where the Samsung Galaxy TAB 7.7 coumunity can vote/write their requests to you and you will see how many people want that rom from you guys

So if we get for example 20 people who donate 25$ then D.O.C would prolly buy a P6800 and build us a high quality rom !!!
I would donate 50$ for him cause i know the quality from HyperDroid Androidmeda roms!!!
So guys what do you think about that ????
The OP of this thread should make a Vote pool with some devs then we can see how many people are interested to get a custom rom and want to donate few dollars.
If the result of the vote is positive then i would or someone other contact the dev to show him the requests and the people who want donate.
It seems we should start with the question what do we want actually?
I personally want pure ICS, built from source.
it definitely worth if someone can port/develop ICS rom atm(before samsung's "this year" release)
And what about p6810 users?
Enviado desde mi GT-I9100 usando Tapatalk
I would be interested and willing to donate to get a nice rom.
But it would only be worth it to me, if it was based on ICS. We already have a couple of HC roms available, but HC is what it is and you can't get much out of it. This beautiful tablet needs ICS. I'm not a dev but from what I heard, it should be easier now that the GS2 source is out.
The other important thing is that it should support both P6810 and P6800. This should be possible even if the dev only got the P6800. nitroglycerine33 did this with his rom by request and it only took him a few hours without owning the other device.
ready to donate 20/25$ for ICS AOSP on p6810

Well all of us want different things thats clear.
1st in one thing we all should be same "belief" >>> THE ROM BASEMENT <<< and thats >>> ICS <<<
2nd the dev must be a !!!RECOGNIZED DEVELOPER!!! if people donate!!!
3rd then people can for example suggest some RECOGNIZED DEVELOPER and we can start a "VOTE POOL"
4th the result of the vote will show us how many people are interested on wich RECOGNIZED DEVELOPER to make ROM
5th the RECOGNIZED DEVELOPER should be then contacted and asked "are he interested to make a rom for SGT 7.7?" + "what are the requirements?"(maybe nothing or maybe some donates to get the device at first!)
When these things are solved then we can say "DONE!"
Well i am pending as i sad between D.O.C(ICS HyperDroid Androidmeda) or CM9 Based Rom(from a RECOGNIZED DEVELOPER)
If not i will stay on my tweaked Stock Rom till some RECOGNIZED DEVELOPER join this SGT 7.7 Forum
--------------------------------------------------------------
+++UPDATE+++
If all people agree with that instruction and want start a VOTE POOL --> then i would start a THREAD: [POOL] RECOGNIZED DEVELOPER(ICS) ++++ SUGGESTIONS + VOTE ++++
Goals of the thread would be then:
1st gather all RECOGNIZED DEVELOPER(ICS) SUGGESTIONS with reference !!! (I do first example then how it should be look )
2nd start a "VOTE POOL" where all people can vote based on the references of the RECOGNIZED DEVELOPER
3rd get a result that shows us "We can look forward and contact the RECOGNIZED DEVELOPER!!" or "We can stop this ACTION!!"
SO PLEASE INFORM ME - CAUSE I AM SERIOUS WITH THIS !!!!
IF SOMEONE OTHER GOT BETTER IDEAS - THEN OFFER IT!!!
I´LL WAIT UNTILL 01.04.12 - THEN I MAKE A SUMMARY OF THIS

A RECOGNIZED DEVELOPER can implement "Miniapps" to a Custom ICS ROM!
You wont miss any apps in Google Play!
If i am wrong correct me ^^
There won't be any functional, "daily driver" ICS ROMs for the 7.7 until Samsung releases (or leaks) an update. Otherwise, you're going to have an incomplete device with non-working cameras and other patchy issues, regardless of how talented the developer is.

POLL
I don't know how to create a poll in this forum ...
Someone could start a new poll asking for donation on this purpose??
For example, the poll question could be:
"are you available to donate money to buy a GT7.7 for an expert developer in order to get an AOSP/CM9 build for this tablet ??"
and the answer options could be:
- none
- 5$
- 10$
- 15$
- 20$
- 25$
then when we reach the right amount we could add an engagement post in the android development section or in SGSII or Note thread ...

I totally agree.
Must be ICS, HC is not good.
I used Diz as an example, his work is good but everyone has their own ideas on what is best.
Samsung is too hardware focused and scattered with their direction, they will never come out with timely updates or what we really want so this is the only way we will get a device that truly does what we want.

Hi guys, Pls give 2 min attention to read, Yesterday i had a talk with Michał Gapiński, an ICS POLISH BLOOD project developer Who developed ICS for LG Swift,Sony Ericson Xperia series & Samsung Wave(Bada to ICS port almost he done).

Sure. If you can prevent only one customer to buy their ****s, that will be a small victory.:good: but don't expect the sources. I don't know if you are aware of the full story between Sammie and CM devs but quite everything has been made to get these sources and what we finally got is the devs have flown away from Samsung devices...

and therefore we have to give up? look. what did samsung as they found out that thousands of people resetted their custom binary count with the USB jig? right, the built a new bootloader (a year ago, for gingerbread) - therefore: if enough people do something (either good or bad), they will react.
this has to be really big, that over 100.000 of people try it. we are on android, android is linux, linux is open source and we are samsung's customers. they just have to publish that damn code, nothing more.
but if just some cry, nothing will happen. i'm quite active on XDA, so why didn't i read anything of this "flooding" months ago?
let's make another try. then we can at least say that we tried quite much.
choose a date, and spread it all over the xda forums.
Could you provide all twitter, fb and g+ samsung accounts?
yes we shouldn't give up on this i am sooo in +1

They published the kernel sources... But not the closed driver ones...
They were topics on our fight against samsung in all the exynos device forum, s2, s3... "Push Samsung to release source code"
BTW, I hope you will succeed.:good:

Samsung was like "yeah they will cry,beg and spam for it once and then forget about it and move on"
I think we should prove them wrong and just try the whole thing once again!

Guys, you can count on me.As someone said , we have to share this thread to : S3, Note 1, Note 2, Some tablets. We have to show , that community is something !
This is PM wich i sent to Portal Writer
Hey!
At first, I'd like to sorry for wrong ( incorrect?) title. I came from Samsung Galaxy S2 Forum ( GTI9100 ), and we got a little request. Since few days, we're trying to wake up S2 (S3 , Note Family and whole Exynos CPU 4, 5 in near future if this request is going to work ) community beacuse of no source code.As you may know, Samsung promised us Source Codee over 6/9 months ago, but still no sight of cooperation. We allready started ( again...) spaming Samsung on social medias like FB , Twitter, G+, but for now it's like 5/10 guys wich care about that.After i write that message , I want to talk with people from other Exynos devices.So , could You write an article about this case , or just share these links
LINK1 LINK2
Thanks in name of cumunity and myself for any help!
I have also sent PM on Fb to pocketnow

Samsung didn't care about the S2 petition, they didn't care about the S3 petition. What makes you think they'll care now? They have their billions of dollars, their millions of continuous buyers not caring the least what's inside their Samsungs.

what is the purpose of having sources code? what have devs already had nowadays (in case i9500)? i see theres a lot of custom rom for i9500.
just asking
Sent from my GT-I9500 using xda app-developers app
I suggest you guys dampen down the enthusiasm for this reason.............This exact same scenario was played out for the s3, it caused huge amounts of friction, had senior moderators crawling all over the thread and eventually it got locked anyway.......reason?.............it was damaging relationships between XDA and Samsung due to some extremely distasteful spamming of Samsung sites.
You are dealing with an Asian culture that values respect and manners far more than most European countries.....and many people forgot that.
Also the number of people that care about source code is minimal compared to the general sales figures, so a flea bite from a few developers really won't make an impression.
If you wanted development you should have bought the Snapdragon......simple research would have shown you that....(yes,I appreciate you have to have exynos in some countries....such is life)
This is just a bit of food for thought from prior experience....... and to hopefully help try and avoid the repeat of what has happened in the past which resulted in several infractions,a lot of bad feeling and general carnage.
Ps. Don't shoot the messenger
MeThinks Samsung is going the iPhone way in keeping the phone at its STOCK best. They do not want anyone tinkering with the phone, hence they are not releasing the Sources.
The reason is best known to Samsung and seeing the futile efforts in S2 & S3, we dunno if it will bear fruitful results.
If you wanna get everything ready then get I9505/I9505G and pretend to be a cool developer by exercising in compiling. You can toss icons and pictures to make your own "unique" CM or AOSP
If you wanna get something to mess with and be a real developer - buy I9500 and make CM/AOSP through good old hacking like it was with SGS2 and SGS3.
I remember time of Windows Mobile where enthusiasts couldn't even think about source code. Some leaked datasheets were the best additions for hacking. IDAPro and Hex Editors were best friends. Today, if you have no source code then it's full stop.
Theshawty i've read your reply before. You totally misunderstood what i've said. I fully respect to team hacksung and to what they did. They refused to explore Octa SoC and it's their decision. But the original idea behind device hacking remains the same - if you are interesting to make something new - then you will try anyway.
Compiling AOSP which already works on I9505 - not interesting and boring - everyone can do this.

+1, oh dear WM... very closed source..
sorry, android newbie here.
how can samsung not release the sources? isn't it obligated by GPL?

Only the kernel is. They can do whatever they wish with the sources and documentation for their SoC.

Hmm... the petition was not successful in case of S2... another petition was not successful in case of S3... but who knows, maybe if you ask not for petition but petion, Samsung perhaps would disclose the cernel sorse kode?
