[POLL] Official CyanogenMod For ACE - Galaxy Ace S5830 General

Let's see what everybody thinks...
...So as most of us already know there will be an official CM7 for ACE. So let's guess when will that be.

You know, we do know. But its nit forth coming. I can't help thinking its sat on a PC somewhere and there it will stay. Just my opinion, hope I'm wrong.
sat in my one piece devil outfit as I type. . . . . no. . . really!

in my humble opinion, I think ever since it took a lot: (

Noob question:
I'm confused, I don't understand what's with the excitement about an official version. When and if the official CM for Ace will be released, what would the difference supposedly be to one of our unofficial versions? I'm currently using the vo-1 CM7.2 ROM for some time now and it has been very stable already.

I agree, most roms in here are trully amazing. I believe one of the issues that developers have to face with the official version is if the system will be armv5 or armv6 processor based. Somehow this affects lots of things. All roms in here are armv6 based... maybe an armv5 based rom will make it more stable. Maybe i am talkng rubbish, I am not an expert really.
I believe that developers of the official version try to deal with basic apps to work properly as in stock roms, like wifi, cam and stuff like that. As we already know some roms in here had issues with those that were finally fixed... anyway, this is just a poll

I think that all developer are working on cm9 and they "forgive" about Ace)

That makes it even more confusing. We have an ARMv6 CPU but a ROM based on ARMv5 would make it more stable?

Just sit tight and wait for unofficial CM9

i don't care about official one,i only want better camera clarity in CM7

i cant wait for that

Dont know how much time we have to wait to get official CyanogenMod...

its too long. hate it.

ME: are we there yet? are we there yet?
CyanogenMod: NOOOOOOO!!!!!
ME: are we there yet? are we there yet?
..........................................................
Anyway, I (honestly) had a dream last night that official CM7 for ACE was on my phone. Good sign? Am I obsessed? Am I going crazy ??? I can't get sleep at night, I wake up in the middle of the night, all sweat and checking for the cooper release....Please help me!!!! What's is wrong with me people? )))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))
Just joking....or am I not???? GOD HELP ME!!!!
Ok, come on, let me here you so CyanogenMod can hear you too... HOW BAD YOU WANT THE OFFICIAL RELEASE???

by the way...
Samsung ASIA will release an Android 4 rom for Galaxy Ace in 2012 (after launch of a new Samsung Device with ICS).

actually why would we need official cm7
there is no difference between cyanogenmods we have and official ones
here something better coming cm9

camera is not working properly when you change some options to it crashes and the digital zoom option is not working!

well then you are too self conscious..
all features you need may be working fine but there is still something that needs work and official release would be as stable as stock roms without any bugs..
ports are meant to be getting something to just work on your device
official means meant to be run on yours
and atleast you should be happy that its getting official as most of android devices dont have them except some bunch of high end ones

[Q] Android 4.0 Custom ROMs?

Hi there,
as i was reading about the release of the Android 4.0 source code i´m asking myself how long will it take until we have a custom ROM based on android 4.0!
Are some crews already working on it?
Please give me a feedback when you can!
we will get the roms when we get the roms. CM9 should be out soon now that they have the code, which they said they needed to start production, so possibly when we have that, our devs can start punching out some roms. also, in the ICS thinktank on the development page and for example the nexus s forum, they are working on the touchscreen drivers so that they can test more components of the rom.
just be patient
seems to be a lot of time until we have some roms. also Z isnt around anymore.
dunno how to deal with touchscreen drivers for the nexus s! why are they important for a X10 rom? touchscreen is already working isnt it?
as Sony Ericsson is an official member of CyanogenMod now, im woundering that there is NO build for the X10i...........
Curios isnt it?

Official CM support has stopped for the X8 and X10mini/mini pro, since 2.3.7 is the best thing that those phones can handle...and the aftermarket support for X10 would end soon I believe, maybe right after the stable mod comes out.

If the touchscreen isn't working, how would we use the phone? And we are working cyanogenmod, ever heard of the FXP CM7 ROM that's the official one.

The FXP is the official one? Seriously?
The FXP Rom is far away from being stable enough for daily use. Weekly updates and not even finish sources for all parts.......
They are working for a long time on this ROM already and ey..... dont get it wrong.... i´m dontating ALWAYS when using a custom Rom as my daily one.....
....but in last time i lost my faith........
Z gone away! He was the mega-brain behind many progresses........
Dunno what we have to expect in the future!
Will the FXP team finish there work sometime?
As far as i know the FXP CM7 is NOT based on Android 4.0. Its base on? 2.3.4? I dont know........
I was getting an eye on the Galaxy Nexus but it is soooooooo expensive .......
going to stay on my X10

When all the bugs are gone, it will be released as stable.
Go join the bug hunt if you want it faster...
It's highly unlikely that we will ever get a fully stable Android 4.0 rom, for the reasons listed elsewhere in these fora. We may get ports, but they will take time, and lots of it.
Be patient and don't ask for ETAs.

It's not based on anything, they are literally making a rom with sources that they are writing. That's why it took ages compared to other ported roms.

Actually the rom is very stable for daily use with very minor bugs that they are working on. if you have lost faith in a device that is 2 years old with no support now from SE heres some advice, get a new phone! but for the rest of us who enjoy having such a great array of developers that very capable of bringing us support when we need it. Yes Z has done alot for the X10, but dont forget other devs and dont just focus on one.
First rule of CM7: Dont ask for an ETA! you must be patient like with anything. If google and samsung released ICS earlier, imagine what we would be missing.
Well clearly CM7 isnt based on 4.0, cos the source code has only been released to us. you cant expect every dev to be up day and night sitting at there pc waiting for the code, they are real people with real lifes.
Well if your going to stay with the X10, please for the love of god, stop complaining about how we havent got ICS roms yet when no other devices has a nearly stable one yet.

thanks for helping
at first: I did not ask for a release date of a ROM!
this thread is meant to discuss about what we have and can expect in the future for our X10. Its not made to complain about ppl or the devs. It´s meant to get the facts cleary for everyone.
STOP RAGING IN THIS THREAD!
So about the android 4.0 storry: Sony will spend an Android 4.0 update for the X10 ARC! The normal X10 isnt that far away ........... but still such a big prob to port it?
There will be alot devices which get a stock update to ICS and they will be stable.
The point i dont understand is why devs are working that hard on a mod which is already outdated..........
Ofc they try to re-create android with there own source codes but ey.......... you seriously thinking about writing your own operating system for a mobile phone?
Android have been founded by high skilled (and highly paid) informatics guys hired by google! I guess 50% of our devs are <18 years and not even skilled in programming. Don´t get this wrong now..... i dont want to blame you guys! But why do you think we can write a new firmware..............?
Maybe you running behind the wrong goals ............
For me the crew should focus on Android 4.0. Thats the only ROM ppl want to have now. And ey yeah it would be awesome to have ICS on my 2 years old X10!

First, it's quite hard to port 4.0 onto our X10 since we have a really old kernel (.29), not to mention whether our hardware can handle that or not...
Second, the FXP team's goal is to get the X10 up to CM specs so that we can have as much official CM support as we want until the newest android versions become too much for the X10 to handle.
And don't even try to say that most of the devs here are below eighteen, because most of them aren't and have a proper job. If you are looking for child labour to develop your device you're at the wrong forum.

What we have: an almost stable CM7 ROM.
What we can expect for the future: a fully stable CM7 ROM.
What we -might- get: an ICS ROM that probably won't ever be stable.
By the way, what is an X10 ARC? Never heard of that device before.
Assuming that you mean the Arc, there are huge differences between the X10 and the Arc. It will probably not even be practical to try and port ICS from it.
The devs are working on "outdated" CM7 because it is most likely to become fully stable after some work. If they start working on ICS now, they won't have a fully stable CM7 ROM to help them. CM9, based on ICS, isn't even released yet, so do elaborate on what you meant when you said the mod they were working on was outdated. There isn't even any phones with ICS yet...
By describing the devs as under 18s with little coding experience you are actually being extremely naive and disrespectful. Go have a chat with aZuZu or DooMLord about kernels, you'll see what I mean. I don't know if that's what you were intending, but you sound quite rude.
Building a working, let alone stable, ICS ROM, or any ROM for that matter, is not easy. It takes time to build, test, find bugs and iron them out.
Also, for your information, a handful of devs are already working on an ICS port alongside their current projects. Have a quick look in the dev section.
I hope you see my point now.

Lots of Roms but what's the plan?

Before I start, I need to pay my respects to the developers for all the great effort trying to make our ACES one hell of a phone.
Ok, if we were to sum it up as far as cyanogenmod development goes for the Samsung Galaxy Ace we have the following:
1. BehradGH Rom stable but some bugs or apps that don't work. A bit heavier than the following
2. Grif_07 Rom which appears to be the most stable
3. CM7.2 BY J.A.F which is developed by Russians who made a very good job and this one seems to be the fastest so far and very stable. This based on Grif_07 if I am not wrong. A thread started for this one, I believe this one has minor bugs cause I am testing it.
...And of course lots of others that diserve recognition
So if there's going to be an official version on which version is going to be based on and who's deciding for that? How's the whole thing going? Cause as far as I can see we get new roms probably from different working groups quite often but what's the point if they all choose their own path? I mean someone should decide the path so all the developers can work it out and reach the destination --> The Official version of Cyanogen for Ace. I would appreciate and I believe not only me but a whole lotta bunch of people if we were told what's the plan. Just a few words.
I see many great ideas in here, for example jusada took the first two roms and modified them to barebones. Really nice move and quite impressive roms, fast and quite stable but again not bug free (oh man, why you stopped dealing with this???).
Anyway, a few words from the right people would be great. I love cyanogen and I would go donate if we ever get an official rom. Thanks!
Belongs to the general subforum.
The 3 roms has problem with Facebook login on 3rd party programs Like IM+ , Meebo, etc, the only way for me to get facebook chat on a third party was making a meebo account and adding all my accounts into my meebo account and then loging in with my meebo account on the meebo app for android rofl. also CM7.2 BY J.A.F has problem after flashing gapps and everytime my device start it force close gmail and doesn´t connect to Google server to add my google account in the device.

The Official CyanogenMod for Ace would be developed by official CyanogenMod developers, AFAIK (CMIIW). It wouldn't be based on either because the CM developers would use their own source code (if I'm not mistaken, Behrad's CM7 port was taken from Galaxy Mini's CM7 port, and only recently has it been identified as device "cooper").
I agree that things might be better if all those wicked devs worked together to get one demigod ROM, but we like variety. For me, between one universal ROM and hundreds of specialty ROMs, I'd choose the latter.

For the gapps problem in 7.2 i think you have to reflash the rom and this time not flash the ICS theme + animation. I believe that is what causes the apps to crash.
I think we should unite efforts on this cause. Couple of weeks back, I tried to move the crowd a little by making a campaign. Then we received a notice saying that CM7 was coming to our SGA.
ALL DEVELOPERS STOPPED WORKING ON ANY CM7 PORT.
I suggested to keep up working on the roms, since we don't have the certainty that the port is coming for real, which it seems (now) really farfetched. What I'm trying to say is that maybe if kept our noses to the ground and continue developing ONE HUGE MASSIVE CM7 port, then we may finally caught up some attention.

I see, so every rom in here won't have anything to do with the official version that is if we ever get one....why then the CM7.1 Cooper is stated as UNOFFICIAL? And if it gets OFFICIAL again it won't be the real official cyanogen, is that what you're saying?

I believe it's UNOFFICIAL because it's not developed by CyanogenMod developers (Team Douche or related).

If I'm not mistaken, unofficial ports of CM are called KANGs. Behrad's CM7 port (according to that definition) is also a KANG build.
If CyanogenMod developers roll out official support for the galaxy ace (as "cooper"), then that CM7 build would be official.
*did I understand & answer your question correctly?
As always, CMIIW. I'm no expert, I'm no developer, I'm just an extremely happy user.

[DISCUSSION] Android 5.0 Jelly Bean

I thought that it was meant mainly for tablets, but judging by the picture it looks like it may run on a phone though right?
Not sure if this will ever be ported to our phone (or any phone for that matter) but I actually would rather stick with ICS (if those are the real screenshots, JB really screwed up in design in my opinion, but I really like the task manager in the status bar).
What are your thoughts?
let us have a stable ics first...
the interface isnt attractive. looks like we have to wander around miui then.
looks too gd to b real... waiting fr release

Just like how we had an ICS discussion thread, I decided to make one for JB after seeing this:

those images are just a "concept"...
that might not be the real jelly bean...
there are no real imgs available for Android v5...
I think this is a little to far for now.
The only thing I'm excited about JB is the netbook support. It was about time they released a desktop version of Android. It's linux and it will be great to test it. We could be talking about the future Windows killer

I agree, first lets have stable ICS first , beacause untill now even ICS is almoust imposible to be fully functional , almoust beacause the developers always found a"door " to resolve some things that at the first look where "imposible " , lets wish to the developers luck in the ICS builds

We don't have stable ICS yet because we are like "skipping" a step, because HC wasn't open-source, and ICS is based on it, and HC is completely rebuild, the task of getting stable ICS is as hard as getting stable iOS, if it wasn't closed-source... if I posted this when ICS was released, devs would have lost hope...
So JB should be lot easier to do
I was born in the '90's... 1290's >
way to good to be true
I don't think our device will be capable of running JB !!!):
earlier , everybody thought that ICS is impossible for our phone but the result is nw infront of us....
So let just hope that it's also possible to port JB on our O1 after it's release....

Yes people thought ICS was impossible but the devs knew it could be done.
JB will likely be too big to fit into the system and you would be taking features away from JB meaning it would be pointless

cm7

Anyone know one of the guys that help compile cm7? Lets get a non-junked up version of gb on this beast
I would LOVE that!!
cyanogenmod does not support Galaxy Note I717 or N7000
Cyanogenmod does not support our device yet and probly won't til CM9 is released I would love to see CM7.2 running on our devices but sadly it looks as though that will never happen for the I717 if you have a N7000 there is a slim chance you may be able to get 7.2
according to CM's new project plan, the chances of getting official CM support is very high if someone can unoffficially port any CM version.
So if anyone can compile it unofficially, we might get the official support
i hope the i717 is somewhere in cm9's roadmap
impatiently waiting

yeah if i had to bet i would think so too... im just one of those super cm lovers. i cant count how many friends devices i flashed cm7 for them because it was just plain better than any rom ive used... so maybe impatient is the wrong word, more like obsessed flashaholic haha
i find saurom is great, "patiently waiting" rom

Request for non-Samsung themed JB ROM

Hi Kazuni et al, are you developing a non-Samsung themed JB ROM for the I9305? Something like the many CM10/ParanoidAndroid ROMs that are available for the I9300? Would be great to have a "purer" ROM for this new flagship....less of the Samsung customization
This has been discussed several times before but the I9305/I9300 share most of the same components, less the radio correct? If so, would the I9300 ROMs work if they're used w/ a 9305 radio instead? So it would be an easier way to port 9300-developed ROMs over?
Would love to see this, esp if it's built on the new 4.1.2!
There are other differences as well like a different partition layout, but I guess that they might partially work if configured with a compatible layout, would likely have no sound or modem functionality without proper work, a Rom compiled for this model would be better.

I have my fingers crossed. After putting CM10 on a relatives SG3 I want in on the action bad.
I intend to jump in and have a go at CM10 for the i9305 when I receive mine this week. It will be my first attempt at a complete ROM so don't hold your breath or anything.

Don't get me wrong, but didn't you notice the big ****storm about samsung being developer unfriendly and the exynos platform being the hell on earth?
Some of our guys are very sick of samsung and are not going to touch any of the new samsung devices.
Not saying that nobody will port it, but i recommend you to sell this device as fast as possible and get a new upcoming nexus device if you really wanna run AOSP based roms.
If you like laggy and buggy AOSP roms and especially waiting for round about 6 months to get a new android version, stay on what you're currently owning.

I didn't really expect you to add something positive to this topic.!. I really hope that all of us that just got the I9503 didn't buy it for only running AOSP based roms. If that was the case I would buy the upcoming LG nexus that's NOT the case for me. And SamsungExynos posted a tweet today "full availability of integrated source code for #Exynos 4 family of processors on OrigenBoard by the end of 2012"
I wonder what will happen to all these devs that left the GS3 because of samsung not releasing the Source. And then now it looks like they will b releasing something soon, Are you all going to come back? Or just let new and upcoming devs take over. I Feel that with all sources released on this device with the Quad Core and 2gb Ram DAMMMM how smoooth will a proper built CM10 run. And to be honest My device is very smooth as it is. I am not dying for CM10 i actually like the new touchwiz, I like features and animations. And with all of that , this is still hell smooth in my opinion. Either way To me its a win win, if they release the source GREAT if not oh well still very good!!... But i do believe they will release it.

-----> "for OrigenBoard" <-----
It's a exynos development board and has not much to do with samsung smartphones.
The ICS code was broken, outdated and mostly unusable on phones.
The same code is now available again.
I really don't expect a wonder.
From what andreilux has seen and stated below it does not seem like the old stuff and samsung continue to update. Last update was done earlier today here is what andreilux said in the exynos petition page in the i9300:
(They released the 5250 development board and site together with a 800 page user's manual, something which we didn't have before for any SoC. I'll have to see what they uploaded on the Git as it's quite a lot.
Edit: from what I can see at first glance they have 4.1.1 Jellybean sources up there and apparently the newest stuff.

So it seems samsung is pulling up there sox and getting **** done. Maybe christmas came early i also have news from a great dev getting our devic. (I9305) but must not say who at this point

Omfg sorry for spam but the dev will build really ROMs?
Sorry Spaming here but a CM10 Rom for my I9305 would be realy Great.
+1 to non-Samsung-based JB rom like CM10, PA or PACman's mix of all three I'm picking up my i9305 this weekend (South Africa) and really hope that some of the big dev's take to this handset.. number of roms at current is dis-heartening :crying: :crying:

Hi codeworkx.. this is a copy of a post I made on another i9305 thread, it seems more relevant here tho..
Samsung have released the source code for the i9305.. here and I noticed it's also on Github here does this mean there's a chance of more dev's buying into this device for custom rom and kernel devving
defibitely deserves a plus one on this. cm10 porterssss please i would love to experience a proper stock jb theme
