Hi all,
I can say that definitely something bad is happening to this part of SGS2 topic (original development). I log everyday, waiting for some ROMs to test, but there are none!
If you check the index thread, it was updated on 22 March (almost 2 months ago).
Also, since ICS was rolled out for SGS2, there are dozens of AOSP/AOKP ROMs in [Android development], but in [Original anroid development] there is only:
21-Mar-12----Batista70 FOXHOUND EDITION 0.3----Views: 1,400,000
I really hope that not all of the developers have moved to other devices or to AOSP/AOKP, but it looks like that's the case.
Anyone has any idea what's going on? Summer is still far away...
Well, just looking through the first page, I saw:
FoxHound ROM;
HyperDroid ROM;
Slim ROM;
Clean Blank ROM;
CheckROM
Not sure what your on about. If your not content with this sub-section, try the Android Development Section, plenty to flash there.
Chris.
The guy who started the "[INDEX]" threads in both the Original Development and the Development forums hasn't been updating his threads.
That doesn't mean development hasn't continued though.
It was nice of the guy to build index threads, but given he's not really updating them, it may end up causing more confusion like this, unfortunately.

There are only one or two sammy ICS ROMs. People are waiting since ICS rollout for checkrom ICS and others as well...
I'm not fun of AOSP so Android Development section is not an option for me.
Cheers!

have you even looked in there???
It isnt only aosp roms in there
first you got to understand the difference between android deveopment and orignal android development and you will understand why there is no big activity.
Well devs owe us no favours its up to them as to what and when they build a rom .
Usually find someone donates them a new model and they move on or they get sick and tired of the whiners and stupid repetitive questions and move on .
Solution for the OP big donation to a dev .
jje
As far I can understood there is a plenty to choose from... Now u can even dual boot 2 ICS rom-s so there is a lot of options. To develop originally something demands time so patience would be welcome...

I hope this thread does not get me booted off however ... What is the point of this ROM? It has been months and months and many other excellent ROMs are on the board and have been updated continuously with the latest goodies. Da_G and NRG deliver excellent ROMs all the time and yet the REP has yet to release one iteration. I vaguely recall before the thread was locked and purged, that this ROM will still be released at 6.1 although with the current timeline, maybe it will ultimately be released with 7.0. Just a question from a curious reader.
What is the purpose of this ROM? Well maybe just the diversity. So that you dont have to choose between Da_G and NRG only. If you like one of these, then use them. Others who have stayed with the Elite team from RC1 will surely flash RC5 just to see whats new and enjoy the style in which the ROM is created.
I dont quite understand why that particular rom gets stickied anyway but who am I to question the staff's judgement =x

it is pretty annoying, and rather elitist. Why do they think their rom deserves top priority attention? Don't get me wrong, elite RC3 was my first venture into flashing. But from what i've seen, the roms are well out of date compared to any of the others which see frequent updates.
Discussed, re-discussed and re-re-re-re.
Elite's team provided us with the HSPL, it was part of the Touch Pro Elite Project. Without HSPL, no ROM flashing, nothing.
Also they're work got slowed down by some personal issues for two of the members.
I personally stopped using Elite's ROM at around RC3. I also don't see whats the big deal abut it being stickied.
Thread will get closed soon, hopes this answer some questions.
Elite RC1 was my first ROM, currently chrome is my favorite, But I always prefer to have multiple options, stickied or not, keep up the good work!
I do think it's odd that there are now four and presumably five 'Release Candidates', as if what I've already installed hasn't been released. I'm not sure what happens when the team pick one to 'release'? Similarly, it's odd that a thread was setup to release a release candidate 10 days ago, but nothing has materialised and the thread is locked. Why not setup up the thread when the ROM is ready to be downloaded??
To be honest i dont understand what is the problem you see guys. Its just a forum topic. Stored somewhere on a disk drive, taking few Kilobytes of storage. Once again, if you dont want to flash any of the RCs, dont do it. Yes, its stickied, maybe other ROMs should be stickied as well, that wont probably change as soon. So just ignore the threads, if you dont wait for RC5 or dislike the Project as whole.
Again???
How often will this discussion surface?
Does someone have the idea that this is a democratic propoganda site and that the multitude of users determine whats on the menu?
No,.. it's the guys that have the possibility to make a thread sticky who determine this.
They run the show , like it or not.
Of course, in the effect they ignore all the good work done by others!
I take it as it comes. Elite project is not bringing me what I like. I like and use other ROM's instead. No need to nag about it.
Let's stick to the fact that everyone who is contributing to this site,... is in fact contributing! And thats what it's all about!

I do not agree with that statement one bit. First of all, you have to earn the moderator status. This status is given to people, who help and contribute the most to the community. Secondly, hardspl for Touch Pro was developed by a member of the Elite team. It is only thanks to this SW that we can flash our devices with any ROM we wish (it doesn't have to be Elite ROM). So there is definatelly a democracy here and the people behind Elite ROM have a great deal to do with it. If what you state were true and the the guys running this forum would really want to "ignore all the good work done by others", they would have had to act exactly the opposite way.
Who cares? If you're not a cook, it shouldn't bother you. Since this is THE place to get a good ROM, it shouldn't matter. Scroll past it and forget it... It should be mentioned that if you go through any of the RC# threads, it's discussed there. Search and find the answer, but I believe it's been mentioned here already...
Thread not related to ROM development and is starting to turn into a flame war.
P.S. If you have a problem with the actions of moderators either take it up with them in Private Message, or speak to the site administrator. Please don't air your dirty laundry in public.

Im looking for a new ROM for my Hero without sense.
It has to be fast, and everything has to work.
First of all. Wrong section. Moderators please move this thread.
Second, its called a Vanilla Rom, when it is just android
Third, its all a matter of testing and just finding one that fits you
Moderators Please move this thread!

Well wait for it to be moved o Q&A
There are few Vanilla Roms I can think of
Vanilla Eclair
EzHero
AndroBin
aHero
And CyanogenMod for Hero
That might not be all of them
/showthread.php?t=721551 (Sorry can't post links yet)
Check this post out, seems to detail many of the popular ROM's and their speediest features. (Broken down to Sense/Non Sense ROM's)
Superhero is also worth a look if you just want speed and compatibility, although it isn't pure vanilla aosp

Try helping yourself next time, this has been asked countless times before and usually gets a very similar answer (search), it is down to personal preference. Try them, try as many as you can. And it still worries my how many people fail to see that if you're going to ask a question the development section isn't the palce when there is a dedicated space for questions and answers...
villainrom 12 + launcher pro(set as default) + oc = power/stable/speed/daily.
is fully working... only got problem after what sh*t i done to it my call during BT to audio not working. no time to re-flash now due to daily usage...
is current the best rom right now i have tried(almost all rom in xda).
Go for VanillaEclair 4.0
Clean, fast, stable,... what else?
Link above in my signature.
And welcome in the vanilla on Hero world.
Moved as not Development.
Hey Guys, just a heads up, but we got the green light for the new forum to be added. The Administrators have decided to name them:
AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Android Development
AT& Samsung Galaxy S II Ported Development
So obviously all Hellraised and Flashoholic ROMs will go into the Ported Dev Forum and all the i777/AT&T Original based ROMs will stay in the Android Dev Forum.
Its looking like it will be created and setup for us this weekend, so prepare for both forums to be easier to navigate and it wont seem so crazy in just one forum for development.
Does that include bases that were built from i9100 firmwares?
XWLA4 bases for example, since we just got a wave of them.
You edited your post after I quoted you... roms that are build from the ground up (no matter the base) will stay in Original.
So what is left then, cause I still only see ShoStock and UnNamed as being the only ones still on AT&T base.
Then Entropy's & Siyah's kernel, scripts, as the other stuff that would belong here.
Unless I am missing something.
I think I am going to like this, but boy is it going to empty out the Original Dev. forum. I can think of maybe 5 ROMS that will stay.
Roms that are just Hellraised or flashoholic'd will be moved to ported... because they were just ported.
All roms, like for instance Binnacle because Pirateghost did it from the ground up (even though its an i9100 base) will stay in Android Development. He didnt port over an already existing i9100 rom.

Oh ok then its not all XWLA4 bases just those that were from the i9100 section.

Now I like the changes again! You scared me for a moment.

Makes sense, thanks Red. You should put that info in the main post, for dummies like me.
Chris: I bought this phone fairly early, so I was flashing design-gears roms (2 of them here). There's Serendipity/UnNamed which are also veterans. ShoStock came a bit later. Theres also little ones here and there that died out quick.
Yea I know about Serendipity, but that hasn't been touched in forever.
Shostock is still updating, while UnNamed might not be its still has a good fanbase, I think someone is trying to resurrect the rom though if I read the posts correctly.
I am happy for the changes though.
Sick liking it
Yeah, my interpretation of it is:
If you started with I9100 stock firmware, and started doing things from the ground up (such as following my Sh1tROM guide) are still original development.
If some other person created a ROM and you ported it - it's Ported.
That leaves cases where the original I9100 firmware developer hellraises and posts here - I believe that it can stay, since it is still that developer's original work.
Wish you had that guide earlier, would have made it easier on me.

Then your thread goes in the trash and we tell you to start over, but do not collect $200.
Uh, it depends on how close it is to the rom that you ripped off... if its just a clean Samsung base (dosent matter what phone it was for) and you did everything else, then it goes in Original. If it s just a hybrid of this rom and that rom that has already been created, then it goes in Ported.

Why didn't I think of making this suggestion first, what a great idea!
Segregate the ported/hellraised i9100 roms from the i777 AT&T custom roms!

I still think that all i9100 roms should go into the new forum.
That way those of us who are looking forward to AT&T/i777 custom roms
will not be confused by seeing a lot of i9100 custom roms in the forum
ported/hellraised or not.
In any case my suggestion is to have a seperate i777/AT&T custom rom forum.
(at first that's what I thought you were talkiing about)

The issue with this, which has already been mentioned in this thread by others, is that the Original Android Development would be empty with about 4 roms and 2 kernels, while the other Ported forum would be super busy because 94% of all of our roms are currently based off of i9100 firmware... so it really wouldnt be offloading the mass chaos that we are currently experiencing.
Think about when ICS drops for the i9100, the Ported forum will be BOOMING while the Original will be dead, so it defeats the purpose of creating a new forum.
Hi all
I have an I9100 and I would like to change the ROM with a cooked one, this my first time
I just want to go on with Open Source and faster operating system without all the Google and Samsung Apps
I will go on with the Gmail account but a little bit lighter
I'm not sure about wich ROM to choose
Can you please just indicate me a general ROM?
Thank you very much in advcance for reply to this newbie question
This Q is a no - no.
Check the development forum, pick 3 or 4 ROMs, try them out and then get back here and tell us what you thought.
(actually, this thread will be closed by then).

Gaston,why would be this thread closed?He asked what ROM to use as a base,not which is the best.He asked about Sammy based,Cm based,AOKP based ROMs.(These are the most common ROM bases).
hey mate first of all i wanna say to you welcome to our community
and second one :
we have a lot of custom roms that you can try like :
- NeatROM
- wanamlite
- CSR
- AND etc.
These are based on stock roms from Sammy
- ParanoidAndroid
- Rootbox
- ThinkingBridge
- And few others you have just to look for the one that looks good for you
Oh and this ones are based on pure android from Google
And next time please look at few roms before posting threads like this
Have a G'day
Because people will moan at the littlest thing on here and talk to there mate the mod and have it closed. Don't you see this ALL THE TIME on here. We do. And no he didn't ask about stock cm aokp based roms he asked about cooked roms. Gas Ent being funny he just knows what will happen to this thread :thumbup:

if I were to ask you for a ROM I should try, you really think you would suggest me other than your ROM of choice?
What ROM are you on?
Why are you on that?
Who suggested you to try it?
Don't mind answering, i'm just gonna say it sucks.
I don't like custom, so here's my biased opinion.
Bias opinion are against xda rules; last time I checked we were free to choose what WE like NOT what OTHERS say.
If the OP wants to know where to kick off he needs to go to development forum and check ROMs out.

I want to try a new rom for my phone cause i got bored of CMD10 what rom do you guys recommend to me i want it to be stable and fast
There's hardly anyone reading this forum. They have moved on to other phones. But read the currently and recently active threads in the development forum to see what's available, and get clues as to what is good.

thanks i remember talking to you about this like a year ago and you recommended me ShoStock 3 is that rom good or there betters??
Also i read the cyanide thread and looks pretty good what do you think its better i want the opinion of a that has more knowledge in this than me
Do you want Touchwiz or AOSP? If you want touchwiz, then I would recommend either Cooked or SHOstock3, as either one of those is stable. I'm not familiar with AOSP having barely ever used it, so I can't make any suggestions there. Read the threads, as I suggested, and maybe post your questions in those threads.
