[help]aosp rom development - Galaxy Ace S5830 General

Hi Developer's,
It's really great to see a lot of great roms for Samsung Galaxy Ace releasing day by day.....Why don't you guys work together and bring up an AOSP rom for SGA....Please try concentrating on developing an AOSP rom...
THANKS

Somebody did it but decided not to share because the forum is full of thieves who take others' work and change a little to release it as their own.
He mentioned that he's got ASOP working with a week standby battery life. Don't know if it's true but I believe it's possible. But now we need a developer to do this, not just rom cookers. Still it seems like nobody is interested.

It's supposed to be AOSP sorry. It's android open source project. Such roms have no bloatware nor brand additions. The rom package can be as small as 40 mb. But integrating the functions like touchscreen and lights and connectivity may be a problem so we need somebody willing to compile!

Small, but also extremely lightweight so I presume it'll be fast. With that as base custom roms should be better and faster.
If sod is really a firmware bug both AOSP and Cyanogenmod should stomp it off...

AOSP is android in its purest form without samsung's desecration. It is how android was meant to be. It is a base for ROMs like MIUI in many cases. Besides one can use the latest android sources(android 2.3.5) or the older stable sources to build it.
But building it is not easy. The android source code itself is like some 2 GB. Compiling and integrating the source code into a device is like building something from scratch. It would take a lot of time,effort and patience to build an AOSP rom.

Though what i've heard of is that miui was based on cyanogenmod, which was also built from scratch.

Anyone wanna make an AOSP ROM with me ?

Of course both cyanogenmod and aosp have to be built from scratch. Cyanogenmod,pure AOSP and MIUI are all based on Original AOSP source code and so have the maximum speed and utilize the hardware to its fullest. This is unlike samsung stock which has incorporated some closed source code with the open source one which limits its development.

...and all AOSP ROM should have no SOD issue

---

I set to work on it....but I didn't go far . FML

I guess you are using ubuntu..
Go to a terminal,connect the Galaxy ace via usb and type
$ lsusb
This will list various bus devices..Find Samsung electronics...mine is something like this...yours should be something like this-
Bus 002 Device 009: ID 04e8:689e Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd
Here "04e8" is vendor id and "689e" is product id.
Type in terminal-
Code:
$ gksudo gedit /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules
In the blank file type
Code:
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", SYSFS{idVendor}=="04e8", ATTRS{idProduct}=="689e", MODE="0666", OWNER=""
Save the file and type
Code:
$ sudo chmod a+r /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules
and restart udev.
