Bet they won't stop just do it in secret keep away from the public eye and all the drama, the guys want it on their phones as much as we do!

[Galaxy S II General] :
Well one thing is for sure...This thread stays....I promised to get the latest regarding anyone who is working on a project and gets us ICS and this remains the purpose...Im gutted like everyone else but not much we can do really.:(

Mixed reviews...Hopefully someone can clear the air for us.:)
[Galaxy S II General] Cobesz:
Where does it state that the team is stopping this project?
[Galaxy S II General] :
on webchat:(
[Galaxy S II General] kickassdave:
B******s... (balls)

Damn it. Can we kindly have confirmation from the devs on this or the other thread please?
[Galaxy S II General] freemini:
that's a pretty big surprise. If this is for real, then THANK YOU for your hard work!
[Galaxy S II General] jinan:
Coordination amongst aospsgs2 and miui?

I wish there could be some coordination amongst Aospsgs2 team and Miui team in getting this project finished. I see that Miui has released their version of ICS long back and is working almost in all aspects, if not faked :p
[Galaxy S II General] chetan_mohanty:
OMG..I was waiting for the beta release
[Galaxy S II General] bakedecake:
They're obviously having a bit of fun before they release it. Ok guys you got us.
[Galaxy S II General] kickassdave:
Probably right...
[Galaxy S II General] jinan:
I was actually waiting for the first public beta before making a donation to the team. Still waiting :(
[Galaxy S II General] rudolf895:
i don't think they'll stop after achieving so much ,

its just to avoid too much attention i guess.

read: ozone.adamg.co.uk/i9100-update.txt

i might be wrong, but hay who knows.
[Galaxy S II General] idesire:
Thank you to the Devs.............it's been emotional! :D
[Galaxy S II General] CamoGeko:
Could it be they are just testing us because they are so close to release. :eek:

kick back chill and whatever happens... happens and we all still have a kick ass phone as well even with lowly 2.3.5 lol
[Galaxy S II General] freemini:
Donations are to support the developers. They do this in their free time. They've achieved so much already if you want to support them, there's no good or bad time to do it.
[Galaxy S II General] svceon:
Testing us why?

They are not releasing it soon.

In the best scenario development will continue without anyone knowing it besides them.
[Galaxy S II General] adem_7:
Well said. Need to chill, all worked up reading this thread for days.
[Galaxy S II General] daleski75:
Worst case scenario development has stopped and we all keep an eye out for any leaked builds of the official ICS rom from Samsung.
[Galaxy S II General] :
couldnt agree more...lets take a chill and have a few cubans..:cool::cool:

on a lighter note...Rihanna or Cheryl Cole:p

and lighter lighter note i was actually hoping just to have a post full of Intratech's quality posts:D
[Galaxy S II General] Paradoxxx:
This, is, over.

For real.
[Galaxy S II General] freemini:
Take it easy.. It's just an OS update after all. Sure it's nice, but it won't change the way you use your phone.
[Galaxy S II General] CamoGeko:
Im not talking about full release, but only beta 1.

;)

Once the mic input is sorted out, it's going to be rockin.

I know... no further comments, I might get flamed :)
[Galaxy S II General] Paradoxxx:
Lol. Guys really, wait for a cyanogen release. Aospsgs2 is over.
[Galaxy S II General] King Shady:
How do you know lol?

Edit: ah codeworkx to the rescue!
[Galaxy S II General] codeworkx:
I don't know what the icssgs2-team is doing, but we're still working on the last issues like we did since the beginning.

You can track progress here: http://codeworkx.de/wordpress/2011/11/20/status-update-for-ics-on-galaxy-s-ii/ or join #cmsgs on freenode.

We're not releasing alphas or testbuilds.

We'll release it when we feel it's finished.

So asking for ETAs is totally useless.

I'll leave this thread now, because it has nothing to do with us.
[Galaxy S II General] Paradoxxx:
Maybe because I'm a aospsgs2 member?
[Galaxy S II General] freemini:
Wait, weren't aospsgs2 and the cm team working together?
[Galaxy S II General] Paradoxxx:
Yeah, go there. Everybody moved there.
[Galaxy S II General] King Shady:
Ah yes thank you for your great contributions :).
[Galaxy S II General] Paradoxxx:
No more.
[Galaxy S II General] Paradoxxx:
No problems.
[Galaxy S II General] :
Thanks for clearing it up for all of us.....Ehh so looks like well do not know....pub anyone?:D
[Galaxy S II General] King Shady:
Phh, more like Hooters here in the US!
[Galaxy S II General] daleski75:
I am down the pub already and Rihanna and Cheryl are both moaning at me for not leaving this thread they don't understand!! :eek: :D
[Galaxy S II General] adem_7:
How is that poll coming along now? Date with Rihanna might come in handy now ;).
[Galaxy S II General] :
And on this note want to take thanks to Paradoxxx for what he has done and to the rest of the guys....If codeworkx wants this thread to carry on on their behalf i would be happy to carry it on....
[Galaxy S II General] daleski75:
Cheers for clearing that up at least everyone now knows what's going on :D
[Galaxy S II General] adem_7:
Kudos, man. Beat me to it.
[Galaxy S II General] kickassdave:
Several pints of lager and a round of BF3 when I get home a thank you. Wait you live in England? Video conference: Pub Edition?
[Galaxy S II General] freemini:
You could rename to ICS porting progress discussion or something neutral like that.
[Galaxy S II General] :
Haha i love Hooters...Just like Al Bundy

Lucky devil you..Mind you they do not understand the meaning of ICS...Actually i would not mind being a rihanna matriak cheryl sandwich:D

haha was with her last night...then i woke up:p
[Galaxy S II General] :
more of a MW3 and Black Ops guy me
[Galaxy S II General] King Shady:
Skyrim GOTY 2011. I already have 60 hours played. I'm the biggest Elder Scrolls fan :)
[Galaxy S II General] :
my friend has that....will play over the weekend and if i like it i will buy it...

anyways on a different note thread stays and first post starts all over again...
[Galaxy S II General] sindrefyrn:
Pfft, who wants to date Rihanna when you can have ICS?

[Galaxy S II General] robbiev80:
Here's an educated guess... Team icssgs2 has "stopped" development until Team Hacksung releases their ROM so they can then release "their version" and pretend they did work.
[Galaxy S II General] cchant:
It seems the mic has been fixed, but team hacksung is waiting on the patch and permission to release it from someone on the Cyanogenmod team. Not sure what the hold up is beyond that. I imagine it won't be long
[Galaxy S II General] freemini:

[Galaxy S II General] codeworkx:
This is not true.

We're still working on mic.
[Galaxy S II General] marcelotorres:
It is Great!:D
[Galaxy S II General] gpat_XDA:
I don't get it. Why can't we have a build with whatever issues are left to be resolved, leave it for everybody to test and work together with feedback for a faster development? We're on XDA, we are supposed to work as a community, I'm sure nobody here is stupid enough to flash a beta ROM expecting it to be functional when the developers say it isn't. This is getting almost as patethic as the iOS 5 jailbreak.
[Galaxy S II General] Silver420:
Exaclty. The whole point of being Open-Source.
[Galaxy S II General] cTrox:
There's no need for feedback at the current stage of development. Other than that, yes a lot of people are to stupid to flash. You should have been on IRC when they released the first few alpha builds.
[Galaxy S II General] CamoGeko:
I agree as well, in my view when the development reaches beta stage it should be released as beta. With a dedicated thread to beta testing, then the ROM can be honed and finalized.

Communicated from a Galaxy far far away via an XDA premium quality neurotransmitter.
[Galaxy S II General] freemini:
Ok, I'll testify. I tried the leaked build. From what the working list says, you might think it works fine. However, old apps are unusable(they flicker all the time), the accelerometer takes 10 seconds to work and not to mention what already is known not to work. I also noticed text is blurry, sadly I don't think this will be fixed until Sammy makes its move :(
[Galaxy S II General] ithehappy:
Seem that some kids do believe that world is gonna end on 21/12/12.

LMAO.
[Galaxy S II General] Silver420:
If someone doesnt know the process of flashing, or how to use certain programs, that doesnt make them stupid.

---------- Post added at 10:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:01 PM ----------

Erm.. Im not sure how that relates to what I said, but thanks for the info? lol
[Galaxy S II General] cTrox:
I just said it like that because I quoted gpat_XDA:

Oh and people tend to not read anything. So they will report the same total obvious bug about a 1000 times.
[Galaxy S II General] freemini:
I'm just saying that there are always people that download alphas despite all the warning signs that say don't expect support or don't flash without experience. You can look at iOS jailbreaks, they can get "hard" but still people that barely know how to reboot will try and complain it doesn't work or it's too hard to use..
[Galaxy S II General] :
Everything updated so far in the first post..Thanks to everyone..Coentje44 working on alpha 4 build hopefully it will be up and running later on today...i will try and keep everyone posted...To those who have pledged your names are on the first post as promised..Thank you
[Galaxy S II General] jastonas:
Just a note concering the donation. I would like to donate but ...

To who? I mean, there are so many people working on this that a) there is no 1 developer, b) the split won't be easy.

Won't this mess things up?
[Galaxy S II General] :
Firstly if you took the time to read it is people pledging to donate file mou. So when the project is done the people on the first post including me will donate the money into one account and that would be shared equally to the team of devs or dev who is succesful in bringing the project to a successful end. that is by porting it over to us.:) hope that answers to your question
[Galaxy S II General] jastonas:
I took the time reading :)

Maybe I wasn't clear enough. Let's say we have 300Euros or pounds or whatever.

And rom is ported. And people donate to one account.

WHO will manage that account? How will he share "equally"?
[Galaxy S II General] ithehappy:
Just seen this,

[Galaxy S II General] Coentje44:
We don't need and want donations.

We are just doing this for fun and it makes me happy we get so much positive feedback, thats enough for me! =)
[Galaxy S II General] :
All honesty mate i have not thought that far ahead yet. I am not going to abort it though because i am sure we can come up with a solution..I just want to say i know the guys do not need and want the donation but for me its a thank you for all the time and hard work they put in...so even the smallest donation for a beer or coffee or whatever as a thank you its a small thing considering they are working their socks off to bring ICS to us.:) hope you can understand

i know Coentje44 that you guys do not need donations..But for myself its a way to say thank you for your hard work and time that you guys are doing and putting into this project...If anyone else does not want to donate, i will do cause its the least i can do.:) i know im helping wit this thread here but still its nothing compare to the work you guys do and if you are succesful with ICS coming over still a donation i think its worth even a beer for your efforts and to the rest of the guys
[Galaxy S II General] h20pt:
I think that's no surprise :)

But thank you for sharing with us ;)
[Galaxy S II General] Paradoxxx:
To answer this, Chadouming will create and manage the account. It could serve to pay a website hosting, and then, the money that could last, would be gave and divided to all the main devs.

Sent from HydrOG3N MOD S2.

Technology Evolves, Android Evolves.

HydrOG3N is THE Revolution.
[Galaxy S II General] :
One step ahead of you big guy i think Skyline is on the case for that...But either way Chadouming that would be a good thing to do by him and all the pledges can post here how much they want to do and when Chad opens that up then we can get the ball rolling how does that sound?...Anyway when that is up let me know and i can post the links on first post and people that already on my list on first page i will send them a message with the link and to give them explanation about the website hosting and take it from there

And Para..Nice to see you here;)
[Galaxy S II General] jonny68:
May i make a suggestion, give any donations to a nominated charity as i notice one or two devs said they aren't doing this for money, i realise Matriak has the best of intentions but personally speaking i think if everyone was to agree giving the money to a charity whether that be a childrens charity or whatever might be a good idea.:)
[Galaxy S II General] :
Thanks Jonny...And at the end of the day either to a charity it goes either to the webhosting to help out with the process of this project the final say its down to you guys...All i want to do is if people want to pledge a donation to post it here and then once the project is succesful the people on the list including myself can donate to devs or to whatever suggestion the devs have for us.....

My personal opinion i think it should go to the webhosting site that Chad is going to set up as Paradoxx said so we can help maintain what they are working on..But at the end of the day its what you guys want hence why suggestions are welcomed here
[Galaxy S II General] screamworks:
OP, could you put me down for $30 (AU)?
[Galaxy S II General] Coentje44:
After some discussions with the Dev team we decided to open a Donation account.

We will use all the money for a website so you can check our latest news and other hot stuff from the Dev team. If you can afford a few bugs, donations will be truly appreciated! Here is the link to the Paypal page:

Paypal donation ICSPortS2

Cheers,

Coentje44
[Galaxy S II General] screamworks:
I know it sounds silly, but I'd like to see some verification on this first mate. Just for the peace of mind it'd bring :D
[Galaxy S II General] Coentje44:
I see, but its up and if people want they can already donate.

All money will be used for the new site =)
[Galaxy S II General] :
Done mate your name is on the list now thanks

Link will go up mate on the first page..Thanks

Totally agree with you and like i said maybe wen project is done then people can donate to that paypal account which i think its fair

Exactly..Its down to people to donate if they like but lets see the site up and running first and maybe leave it till the we have the project succesful then people can start donating..Either way its down to people choice...:) either way thanks for the efforts and time you guys are putting in
[Galaxy S II General] jastonas:
Just bought two cones of ice cream :P
[Galaxy S II General] DSF:
Really? Are you buying a datacenter or what? Webhosting is really really cheap in our case. I'm sick and tired of these donations stuff.

You can use rapidshare/megaupload/etc for large files to save bandwidth.

And a little offtopic:

You can make really nice money from donations, you just need to make people think your product is better than others. Look for example at the overhyped vilainrom. It is considered an "original" product (one author is a mod, doh!) even it has absolutly nothing special than maybe other "not original" roms. You don't need to do too much research to build a rom such as villainrom.

People, donate to something that matters, don't waste your money.
[Galaxy S II General] :
Look no one is forcing anyone to do anything here. I myself started this as a gesture of goodwill for the devs who are doing this project in there free time. They have not asked for anything from anyone..It is me myself who made the suggestion to donate to the succesful party who will be succesful in bringing the ICS to us...No one is holding a gun on anyone's head asking to donate money. But i never knew by suggesting something for a good cause will cause this kinda aggrevation...So im going to scrap this bounty collection so to avoid people taking the wrong idea.... And if you actually took time to read through posts and first post no one is forcing anyone to do anything or donate..It was my idea and people would of donated AFTER the project was successful...But anyway i do not need this at this time and having to explain myself so bounty collection is being scrapped..

Thanks to the people who kindly pledged and are on the list i know your help would of been appreciated by the devs even IF THEY did not want this in the first place anyway, but due to my good nature i thought that was the smallest ting we could of done for them if they were succesful...anyway enough of this lets just concentrate on the guys being succesful and that is it
[Galaxy S II General] Silver420:
Well it doesnt help that this thread is in the general section :D

But then again, as said earlier, a lot of people dont read the comments until its too late. There should be a beta/alpha section of the forum, which in theory would make it better, but then again.. If people are not prepared to read comments / guides / learn how to use certain programs, then it makes no difference what section of the forum you put it in.
[Galaxy S II General] :
well this thread can easily be moved....just say were and its done....but for now i think it should stay here but suggestions are welcomed
[Galaxy S II General] cchant:
Apologies I misunderstood something somewhere then
[Galaxy S II General] Silver420:
You would think it would be in Galaxy S II Android Development? But as I said, its besides the point where its placed as if people wont read, they wont read.

However, it seems that if one person ****** the rest off, everything comes to a halt. Regardless if thats in a sense of "people are complaining about X" or "Someone released this as their own"

The whole point of open source is to modify, share, and ENJOY!

IF things got shut down everytime something like this happened ^^^^ (and I dont mean just this ROM, I mean anything to do with Open Source projects in general) we wouldnt have any 90% of the stuff that is out there :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S II General] runebinder:
So a fairly dramatic day, thread get's closed and the re-opened (thankfully, has been good reading and essential during work breaks lol), then the stopping of development by the AOSP team. First of thanks to that team for the efforts, having read some of the comments on here and the other thread can't blame them considering the ungrateful comments by people with an overblown sense of entitlement.

At least we still have team Hacksung's efforts to place our hopes in. Glad this thread's still open till we wait and hope they can beat Samsung to it.

For the meantime thank the gods for Skyrim and StarWars The Old Republic beta testing :D
[Galaxy S II General] robbiev80:
You should email Google and ask for their latest version of Jellybean (Android 5.0).

See what they say. Just tell them that's "The whole point of being Open-Source."

:rolleyes:
[Galaxy S II General] SaneinOne:
I must say, having come from a BlackBerry power-user to an Android fanatic, all of the major forums are the same. In all honesty though the conduct of some members here are much worse.
[Galaxy S II General] SaneinOne:
Sorry for the tangent, please don't ban me! ;-)
[Galaxy S II General] MDaveUK:
This thread is 90% full of drama crap. So is the one in the development section, before it got cleaned, multiple times. Threads like these put off developers that want to help if anything. Where can I go to get the information regarding actual development talk?
[Galaxy S II General] :
if you wanted actual development talk then you should of gone to the other thread in android development section.

second as you say this thread is full of drama crap you might of noticed that aosp ics port is over..

and third if you actually have read the title of this thread it does say non dev issues and q&a here....so again for development talk wrong thread....this is why its in general forum so people can talk about ICS in general.:)

EDIT: and as Geko just explained below codeworkx and his team are carrying on their project...go back a few posts and you will see for yourself....this thread is in general for people to have all their info in one place..that is it..but anyway Dj Pingu explained better:)
[Galaxy S II General] CamoGeko:
Just leave them to do their work, you don't need to watch over the development talk.

The only thing we need to know is where the progress is posted, thanks to Matriak31 for collating that info. Now we know that everything is still moving forward, we should just shut up, sit back and relax. Wait for further news on the devs' achievements, simple as that.

*****ing, moaning and speculating is not going to help anyone. Will probably just aggravate people, the devs included. Which is probably why they don't like visiting threads like these.

Good one. :)
[Galaxy S II General] codeworkx:
In the actual state, most of the users here could not handle the rom because of some minor bugs and a lot of incompatible apps from the market.

It would generate a ****storm of dumb questions and fully kill development.

We don't need any feedback at the moment.

Like the past has already shown, 90% of the feedback is "LOL, HOW TO FIX BOOTLOOP, PLX PLX HELP", "FIXXXXX IT FASTTTT", "FORCE CLOOOOOOSE, HELP PLX PLX".

And when somebody talks about "acting like a community."

It's like on any project on xda. Dev's are spending their free time on something and in appreciation of it, we'll be bombarded with dumb questions because most of the users are lazy and cannot read. They just can cry like little childs: "GIEF GIEF GIEF NAO!!!!" And if they're not getting what they want soooo bad, they're saying "**** ON OPENSOURCE" and "CRAP COMMUNITY".

Great community.

It's our project, our free time. We're deciding when it will be released.

If this is not what you wanted to hear, start working on your own ROM and learn how to develop like every dev did!
