[Galaxy S II Android Development] chasepoes:
What is all this messing around in the SGSII forum all about? I'm not a regular poster, this being my first post (because there is not much I can contribute), but I am a regular reader (because there is a lot for me to learn en benefit from). But now I really feel the need to post.

Originally came from the HD2 threads, which are all fine and dandy. But what I see in the SGSII forum just puts me of. What's up with all the f**cking around with 'original android' or just 'plain android' sections.

Do you really think, that I, as a reader, could care less about which subsection a post belongs to? It just makes it more confusing to find the information I need and puts me of reading, because half the threads are filled with discussions about the same insane discussion about where a thread should be placed :eek:. Just make 1 sub-threat 'Android development' and be done with it already! As long as topic-starters give credit, where credit is due and post with full concent of the original DEV (When applicable), all should be fine.

That way, threads about ROM development are all about what is really important: Information about ROM dev....and not about which place in which subforum everything belongs, or who invented what and is a the 'rightful owner' of a tweak\mod\solution. (So far I've seen very little real 'intellectual property' in all the mods I've used (HD2 as well as SGS2), which kinds of makes the whole deviding-idea a bit silly really) Even for me, a non-dev, forum-reader it is unclear why there are 2 subthreads for Android dev, let alone know which ROM belongs where (should I even care, which I don't).

So what ever intention was served by creating the 2 sub-threads, it is lost to me and many other readers (I guess) and is therefore obsolete imho. If it is just done to boost the ego of some dev's (i can think of no other reason, this is not a statement what so ever), then get over it and think about why you started OPEN SOURCE development in the first place!

Just my 2 cents..

Now back to what's important:

@NeopHyte: Been using your rom for 2 days now, and it works great. Fast and snappy and no real reproducable errors. I had the e-mail client FC one me once (unfortunatly no log reader on my phone on that occasion). I use the e-mail intensively all day, but no reaccurance of the fc has happend so far, so maybe just a freak incident.

I do not use the Swift-X keyboard (or other keyboard for that matter), so no info on that one not working as stated in earlier posts.

This morning the energy-save function kept turning on and off constantly (about a 5 sec interval) while the phone was on a charger. Resetting the phone and changing the charger cured the problem (I could not find any related error in the logs). But then again, the phone was on a dodgy chinese cheap-ass charger, and it is now on the original charger. Will do further tests in the evening, I really need the charge right now :)

It is a little-bit annoying that the GO-launcher can't be updated, due to your tweaks. But then again, it works perfectly fine, so no real biggy. (i usually don't try to fix anything that is not broken). Maybe this is something to fix\look in to for your next release.

Battery usage seems to be lower then stock-rom, so that's a plus! (no real comparitive tests done btw)

Only thing i could wish for was a different lock-screen..I really don't like the original samsung-screen, and have as of yet, not found out how I can replace it with another lock-screen (without getting a double-lock issue).

Keep up the good work, and a nice beer is on the way!
