I understand the idea behind the Development and Original development forum names, but they still don't seem to be helpful at all.
I suggest naming them something like "HTC EVO 4G LTE Sense based Development" and "HTC EVO 4G LTE ASOP based Development".
There are sense based ROMS with Original development....so that doesnt work.
Saying only AOSP ROMS contain original development shows a general lack of understanding what goes into making all of those tweaks available to us on sense ROMS.
Fine the way it is
Try and be reasnbl

He didn't say that though, did you read his post?
I agree with OP. It would be nice to have some organization in the forums. The AOSP section wouldn't be that big but that's all I really care about development-wise anyway.
There's only 2 or 3 AOSP ROMs. They don't need their own section. Its real easy to tell whats sense and whats AOSP by just looking at the title.
And while OP didnt explicitly state that sense ROMS don't have original development, that seems to be whats implied here, which is the argument that is made in other threads.
The original development section is there to highlight devs who have contributed above and beyond the norm. Its there to easily recognize whats original and whats modified stock. Go to the EVO 4G forums... they are a mess anytime there is a new OTA with multiple people releasing a stock ROM with the same tweaks.
I'm not saying its the best method, but its better than what was suggested.
it was better with one dev section... 2 is just a pain in the a$$..

There are only a couple so far, but official CM support could cause that number to go up. I know how the original section works, as I have been one of the people pushing it the most and explaining it to people who didn't understand it. I just think there's a better way and that we should experiment.
I was confused as well when I came to this section... why is there 2? Everything is fine in one section lol a [cm10] or [AOSP BASED] tag in the rom name makes it stand out enough lol I dun get it, what kind of roms go into original and what kind goes into regular?
Isn't all modifications considered "original"?
What if you use someone elses mods but bake it into. An all in oone rom? Its not original cuz you didn't make any of the mods so would it go in regular? Or maybe it is considered original cuz he baked it all in one?
Real curious lol

Instead of typing up my usual wall of text, I'll just give you this link.
If it was as easy as you think it is, why are there so many people who can't figure out that you can't flash a Sense kernel to an AOSP ROM? That is just an example. There really is a lot of confusion and many, many other examples.
Yes, it is easy for you and I, but we are clearly the exception, not the rule.
I am experienced and know what is what, but I have to weed through a lot of crap to see anything useful.
I did not imply anything about what is original or not. Don't read into what I write. I am always very clear and specific.

That has almost nothing to do with what I said. I am not talking about what is original or not. That would be someone's opinion.
I am suggesting a simple system. A ROM is either modified from an existing ROM or it is compiled from code.

I think they should spit development into ROMS and everything else. I've tried the so called original sense roms, besides being heavily themed whats original about them? They have even borrowed some of the so called non original rom features. 4x5 rosie would be an example. That was a meanrom original but it isn't classified as original. Its all a bunch of ego wagging with the way the threads are organized.
In before lock...
I don't really mind the current setup, now that I'm used to it. But if it were me, I would have a forum for root methods, a forum for roms and a forum for kernels.

I just haven't been able to jump on the ICS Sense train. I just really love the look and feel of Vanilla ICS, they really stepped up their game with it. I am only basing this off screens though so maybe once ICS gets in full swing we will get some nice hybrids but so far it's bleh.

hey everyone... is development here dead or what? i saw ics was being worked on but got dropped. along with miui, a senseless rom, and others...
is there anything we can do to make more development here?
No development is not dead, if your new here, there are a couple things you should know. First, the dev doing all the work here, xboarder56, was banned I believe, he has his own forum and all of his roms are there. Nrgz28, an awesome dev, has an amazing rom. Faux123 has a kernel for OC/UV. Ics is being worked on by xboarder and a member of the cm team. A sense 4.0 port is on the works by a dev in xboarders forum. So, no, development is not dead. If we want more devs devving here, I think we should do what has been done before, a bounty. I believe someone has spoken to a member of the virtious team.
Edit: sorry, xboarder is working on an aosp build with texasice if you know who he is. And the cm team is working on, well, A cm9 build

Multiple different 3.0 ROMs, a 3.5 and ics in the works. Themes, mods, and toolkits can all be found. Feel free to change custom boot animation if you want. Haven't heard any update on miui.
Not sure I understand your question... What else do you need? Your question "is there anything we can do..." Yes there is something. You could always get s=off for us... There's like a 1k bounty that will reward you for your success.

Can't change splash screen without s=off... Only animations. AFAIK, s=off is a security flag put into a system partition to prevent us from flashing new radios, flashing splas screens, or flashing kernels in recovery... HTC has made it more difficult for devs to access this and hack the exploit, so we are for now... Stuck. Team Revolutionary has hacked a few devices, but they don't have an amaze.
It's becoming a pain in the ass. Because the phone is a North American marketed device (vs a world market device)lacks worldwide development... And devs that are in the states that can get the phone don't want it because no s=off.
There's approx a $1k bounty out for whoever hacks it though.... Although nobody seems to be biting on it.
The Amaze forum is a mess... Lol but the phone is a beast.
Edit.... As far as I know, the phone cannot be bricked. I've yet to hear of any "real" brick... Only soft bricks that can be fixed.

The forum has lost its momentum. what is left from development is from before. compared to the sgsII forum, you can def call the amaze dead on development. yes xboarder is working on ICS and cyanogen is planning of an AOSP rom. I think we will see no other kernel developers besides faux, unless it's for ICS.. and I think the developers we have now are the only ones that we've got. With the anouncement of new HTC phones more developers are going to shift gears...some developers from here might even shift gears...they might send us an update on a rom here and there but that'll be it. if you look at the development of successful phones such as the nexus one, samsung vibrant, galaxy nexus etc, all of them are still going very very strong even though they came out 2 years ago, the vibrant a 2 year old phone already has multiple ICS roms available, multiple kernels, etc. we're pretty much done here. the developers we have here had to be bountied anyways. My personal opinion is that there is no interest left in the amaze development wise besides a couple of developers....sorry but have to be realistic.

I've been looking at what's been going on at xda & it seems like development for the Amaze is moving but not as fast as the sensation. Is it easier to develop for that phone than it is for this one. I known this phone has more power than the sensation so why are there so many ROMs for the sensation. Thanks for all your help guys.

I am going to wait and see how the new phones that T-Mobile gets. If the One X has more development, might as well to switch over with something that has more activity.
I would say there are two main differences between this phone and the Sensation. (1) The Sensation is owned by far more people (ergo, more developers), and (2) Development is more difficult without S-off. I'm just guessing here, because I'm not a developer, but those seem to be our biggest problems.

This thread is useful for two reasons.
1. Samsung hasn't officially released a date yet and there really hasn't been a word on a Google search as to whether or not ICS has been released for the AT&T Galaxy S2.
2. Not everyone prefers the modified versions of the ROM, and though there is bloat on the AT&T versions, not everyone's incredibly satisfied with the custom ROM's (I am personally, but yeah, not everyone's down for the custom ROM's).
3. If the official ICS did come out, it can provide something or another to make the current custom ROM's better, such as the ability to get Google Wallet (or ISIS) working, for example.

Dude. When ICS hits it hits. And if u can't find anything on Google about ics release dates or possible release dates u aren't searching right. Either way when it does drop u go right ahead and flash that buggy bloated OS. I'll stick with my AOKP.

Oh you're right about this being a developers forum but you're completely wrong about the assumptions that only "elite" members can post. You're about as wrong as humanly possible. We only yell at people for threads like these because it does NOT help any developer in any way and this question gets asked over and over again all in separate threads which bog down the forums an leave less room for the more legitimate questions/ posts. And once you've been on here a while you usually know when you should post a thread or when you shouldn't. I've created a total of 2 threads and only one of them was a thread asking a question (the other was for a pair of cm7 themes) and I made sure it hadn't been asked before. Understand a little better?

I am with you on how this i777 should behave and tone down but you list 3 reasons that I think useless, or should I say "non-productive", here's why
1. If you google/search and find nothing, you MUST think, I mean automatically think, that it is either NOT NOW or NEVER happen. Just like when you search a word and it isn't in the dictionary, you should automatically know that the word is not exist or not being defined yet.
2. custom ROM is for who love to flash, if ones don't want to flash, why would they come here in first place? Moreover, if AT&T decide to release their OFFICIAL ICS for this i777, the owners would get the update automatically, right? Then why stop here anyway
3. If the official ICS did come out? if so, then search/google in step one already yield some results.

I dont like it either, but at least read up on it to get a feel of what they're going for

Except there are plenty of roms in the original development section that are based on an "original" source, while aokp, which is not is in the regular development thread. So I think there is more to it then that.

They're still getting it organized so they might have just missed a thread or two.
The 'original' development refers to breakthroughs for the device and "cool stuff". For example, JB development, CM9, MIUI, and so on. On top of that, ROMs that have a lot of actual work put into them--ViperROM, MeanROM--are included because they take the base software that HTC gives us and add in extensive tweaks and such that make a somewhat noticeable difference in overall device performance.
The other section will be for ROMs that don't fit that description. For example, a themed ROM that just uses another ROM as a base, or a ROM that just has the buzzword-y, placebo tweaks that aren't really that big of a deal. Most ROMs will fit into this description.
I will say that I personally feel that they were too lenient on what was considered 'original', and I feel that some of the ROMs there don't belong in that section.
Thanks for the replys. I myself feel that one development section just makes things much easier to navigate. More reliable than having to search through two different forums.

It all seems very opinion based. I just don't see this working out well. Some will be considered original just because of who makes them. Even if it doesn't happen that way, some devs will feel that way. I don't know about other phones but I think 98% of the roms out there have some kind of performance tweaks, otherwise it's a theme. Just my opinion I guess we'll have to wait and see.

yea im defff not feeling it either.. its just a pain in the a$$
It just gets kinda rough looking for that certain thread and it seems like they keep moving. I coulda swore meanrom was in original, now its in regular? Confusing.

Exactly right on both accounts why confuse the element by splitting it up into two catagories. Developement is developement. Thanks for the opinions,,,later,,,,,,
Guys any aokp or aosp ics rom based on stock ics? I know of the senseless one but I need one based on stock with everything running just with the cool aokp or aosp features

You were told in the other thread to flash different roms and you are the one to chose which one is the best for you we are not allowed to compare the work of geniuses and please dont start a whole new thread for such a small question.
Thank you

Here's a couple of posts from the other thread you created to remind you why ROM comparisons are not allowed.
Your first post asked about JB, this one about ICS. Two different animals. On ICS we have many great fully functioning stable ROMs it boils down to the level of bloat you want removed for you, the theming, and the amount of tweaking and optimization. The leanest one that still maintains a fully functional sense is the one I'm using the Energy ROM, however, it's dated and the dev indicated last week that he'd be updating soon. SuperAfnan has a couple of outstanding ROMs both themed and stock. The ARHD ROM was updated yesterday and is totally stock with tweaks, it's probably the closest to the stock factory ROM. Then if you can live with a few minor bugs involving Bluetooth and tethering, the Viper Amaze is one of the most heavily tweaked, optimized, and full featured ROMs for our device, and it's sense 4 not 3.6 like the rest. I hope this helps.

ROM comparison threads are not allowed. You need to test them out and find one that works for you by yourself. Please read the threads instead of asking because ROMS are subjective.
Please do not take developer work for granted.
As Odysseus1962 stated there's so l many to choose from and he has already provided you with information so please just read the ROM threads. I'll give you a hint, there's a "broken" / "not working" section on the ROM threads so you can find bugs accordingly. Ones without it are usually more-or-less problem free.

Some people never learn! I guess it's time for TonyStarks to step in yet again!
Please stop spamming for suggestions on ROMs and do some searching. Try some out for yourself.
Please take a moment and read through the XDA rules, before you open more threads.
